You can read for yourself as to why they remained. All being border states had a lot to do with it.

However, the issue isn't who decided to remain in the Union and why, is it, Jethro? It's why those that left, did. And the answer, as has been explained to you multiple times, was SLAVERY.
How many times does the same thing have to be explained to you regarding secession?

“In all the non-slave-holding States, in violation of that good faith and comity which should exist between entirely distinct nations, the people have formed themselves into a great sectional party, now strong enough in numbers to control the affairs of each of those States, based upon the unnatural feeling of hostility to these Southern States and their beneficent and patriarchal system of African slavery, proclaiming the debasing doctrine of the equality of all men, irrespective of race or color--a doctrine at war with nature, in opposition to the experience of mankind, and in violation of the plainest revelations of the Divine Law. They demand the abolition of negro slavery throughout the confederacy, the recognition of political equality between the white and the negro races, and avow their determination to press on their crusade against us, so long as a negro slave remains in these States.”

It's a Northern tradition to refer to Lincoln's War as either:
- the War between the States, OR
- the Civil War, by any name, the U.S. war that claimed the lives of more than any other war in U.S. history.
BUT !!
Many of our beloved Southern brethren prefer to refer to it as "the War of Northern Aggression".
- dandy
That's fine. If they wish to call it that, so be it.
BUT !!
That specific name leaves specifying the reason for their alleged "Northern aggression" to the Northerners.
If they say it was about slavery, it was about slavery.
If Southerners don't like that reality, perhaps they should call it "the Civil War" instead.
"It should be obvious to anyone why conservatives and libertarians should be against Trump. He has no grounding in belief. No core philosophy. No morals. No loyalty. No curiosity. No empathy and no understanding. He demands personal loyalty and not loyalty to the nation. His only core belief is in his own superiority to everyone else. His only want is exercise more and more personal power." smb / purveyor of fact 18/03/18

It’s already been explained to you multiple times, ignorant pigfucker. Lincoln had no say and no authority to “let them” do anything. Their legislatures voted to remain in the Union.
It wasn’t about abolishing slavery for Lincoln. At least at first. It was to keep the Union intact.
You are an amazingly huge historical ignoramus.
THINK!
