North Carolina

North Carolina was one of the original 13 states in the United States of America, and the home of the first English colony in the Americas.

It was a slave state in 1860, with a relatively small slave population. It refused to join the Confederacy until President of the United States Abraham Lincoln called on it to invade its sister-state, South Carolina. The state was the site of few battles, but it provided at least 125,000 troops to the Confederacy— more than any other Confederate state.
