OK was CSA friendly Indian Territory, But, sorry, Kentucky and Mizzou were border states, not CSA, and missing NC and VA seems wrong for the moniker.

KYs governor sided with seceding as did the people. The state legislature backdoored the vote and pleaded with Lincoln to send Federal troops. A Confederate government was installed in Bowling Green. One of the 13 stars on the Confederate flag was indeed for Kentucky as well. Our state was torn in two. Why were the heinous policies of Reconstruction levied on us just the same as you and everyone else in the South if we were loyal Unionists. Kentucky's history and role in the war was very complicated due to our location. My family fought with the South. That ought to be good enough.
