The ordinances were the official acts of secession.

There was no secession. There was attempted secession.

There was no secession. There was attempted secession.

Call it whatever you like. It won't change the fact that it happened, or that your false god spent 4 years of bloody conquest trying to counteract its effects.

[Aurelius]

"There was no secession."

There was secession, and secession lasted until it was put down by the Federal government which was able to do so because they had available more young men whom they could exploit as cannon fodder to achieve their ends.
