jan 17, 1861 - Confederacy Formed (South Secedes)

Description:

ARC: The South was happy to secede and already elected a president, but the north was outraged by them leaving the Union and planned to take them back.
MIG: People down south who did not agree with leaving the union moved north, and northerners had even less of a reason to move south.
