Question

Five border states, all allowing slavery, fought with the North in the Civil War. The slaves in these states were not freed until 1865. What were these five states?

Answer 1

Answer:

In the context of the American Civil War (1861–65), the border states were slave states that did not secede from the Union. They were Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri, and after 1863, the new state of West Virginia. ... Delaware never declared for secession.p
