Nobody forced Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, or Georgia to ratify the Articles of Confederation, in effect in 1781. And those articles said not once, not twice, but five times the Union of the United States was perpetual. They had voluntarily and permanently forgone the right to secede seventy-nine years before their acts of secession.

Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Tenessee, Alabama, and Florida, by allowing those four states to join the Confederated States of America and providing aid and comfort to their secession, committed a hostile and agressive act against the United States. By unilaterally annexing four states that were perpetual parts of the Union, they brought their conquest upon themselves.
