Card 7 / 10:
Why did the states of the Deep South secede from the Union sooner than the states of the Upper South and the border states?
Slavery was more deeply entrenched in the Deep South than it was in the Upper South or the border states. The Deep South was home to larger numbers of both slaveholders and slaves. Pro-Union sentiment remained strong in parts of the Upper South and border states, particularly those areas with smaller populations of slaveholders.
