The state had long been waiting for an event that would unite the South against the antislavery forces. By February 1, 1861, five more Southern states had seceded. On February 8, the six states signed a provisional constitution for the Confederate States of America. The remaining Southern states as yet remained in the Union, although Texas had begun to move on its secession.  \nLess than a month later, March 4, 1861, Abraham Lincoln was sworn in as president of the United States. In his inaugural address, he declared the Confederacy \"legally void.\" His speech closed with a plea for restoration of the bonds of union, but the South turned a deaf ear. On April 12, Confederate guns opened fire on the federal garrison at Fort Sumter in the Charleston, South Carolina, harbor. A war had begun in which more Americans would die than in any other conflict before or since.  \nIn the seven states that had seceded, the people responded positively to the Confederate action and the leadership of Confederate President Jefferson Davis. Both sides now tensely awaited the action of the slave states that thus far had remained loyal.  \nVirginia seceded on April 17; Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Carolina followed quickly.  \nNo state left the Union with greater reluctance than Virginia. Her statesmen had a leading part in the winning of the Revolution and the framing of the Constitution, and she had provided the nation with five presidents. With Virginia went Colonel Robert E. Lee, who declined the command of the Union Army out of loyalty to his native state.  \nBetween the enlarged Confederacy and the free-soil North lay the border slave states of Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri, which, despite some sympathy with the South, would remain loyal to the Union.  \nEach side entered the war with high hopes for an early victory. In material resources the North enjoyed a decided advantage. Twenty-three states with a population of 22 million were arrayed against 11 states inhabited by nine million, including slaves. The industrial superiority of the North exceeded even its preponder","cbCaiix5oKwhrqLf","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiix5oKwhrqLf","pdf",696537,22,"English","# Table of Contents\n## Secession and Civil War\n## Western Advance, Eastern Stalemate\n## Gettysburg to Appomattox\n## With Malice toward None\n## Radical Reconstruction\n## The End of Reconstruction\n## The Civil War and New Patterns of American Politics","[{\"question\":\"Why did South Carolina secede from the Union in December 1860?\",\"answer\":\"Lincoln’s victory in the November 1860 presidential election made South Carolina’s secession a foregone conclusion.
