Can you cite for me where in the Constitution such a split is catered for? Can you show me in the US Constitution where state secession is prohibited?

It doesn't matter that the Constitution fails to explicitly prohibit state secession. Our esteemed Abraham Lincoln set the precedent for how the federal government in reality would deal with that. He prosecuted a total war that killed hundreds of thousands of Americans after some states attempted to secede. To "preserve the Union", regardless of the cost.
Today that reaction might involve the feds destroying whole towns and villages with massive weaponry that Lincoln and his generals could only have dreamed about back then. Secession is off the table, sorry to say.
