Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, and Delaware never seceded. They were slave states and sent troops to fight for the South, but they never seceded. Delaware was largely Unionist, Maryland tried to secede but Lincoln arrested the state legislators so they couldn't vote, suspended the Writ of Habeus Corpus, and put the entire state under martial law. Kentucky was going to secede, but Southern forces entered the state after it declared neutrality, and many saw it as an invasion. Missouri's governor tried to secede, but he and his legislature were largely exiled to Arkansas by the presence of federal troops. Stop arguing. Read a book.
