In total, eleven states joined the Confederate rebellion. These were, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. The South made attempts to have Missouri, Kentucky and Maryland to join the Confederacy as they were slave states. None, however, did. They were termed "border states" in that they were positioned between the free Union states and the slave Southern states.

The states that fought for the South, which were the Confederate States of America, included Texas, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Virginia. South Carolina was the first state to secede in December of 1860. Early in 1861, six other Southern states joined the Confederacy. After the bombardment of Fort Sumter in Charleston, South Carolina, President Lincoln called for 75,000 volunteers to enlist for three months to help end the rebellion. When that happened, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee and Arkansas also joined the rebellion.
