What city was considered a hotbed of the Confederacy in a border state during the Civil War?
During the Civil War, numerous towns, cities, and regions in the border states were filled with Confederate sympathizers. Missouri, in particular, was a deeply divided border state. The city of Baltimore, however, was not only home to numerous Confederate sympathizers; it was also the scene of a violent riot in April of 1861. Instigated by secessionist-minded residents as Union troops marched through the city's streets, it resulted in sixteen deaths and many more wounded.
Is West Virginia a union state?
Yes but when West Virginia was admitted to the Union, it was considered a "border state". West Virginia broke off from Virgina, and was admitted to the Union, as a slave state, in June 1863, and did not secede from the Union. West Virginia broke off from Virginia because there was heavy dispute amongst the counties, which became West Virginia and Virginia, regarding the issue of secession.
Did Missouri want to enter the union as a free state?
No. The Missouri Compromise allowed Missouri to enter the Union as a slave-state, on condition that there would be no more slave-states North of the parallel that marked Missouri's Southern border.
