佛羅里達於1861年1月10日退出了！

因為奴隸制度議題的衝突，以及該議題對南方經濟的影響，加上其他各項因素，造成了聯邦政府的分裂。南方各州一個接著一個退出美利堅合眾國。在1861年1月10日，佛羅里達 (Florida) 代表們在該州首府塔拉哈斯 (Tallahassee) 集會，並投票決定退出聯邦。佛羅里達也成為建立南方聯盟的六個創始州之一；最後，一共有11個州脫離聯邦政府。


Conflicts over the issue of slavery and its impact on the South's economy, in addition to other reasons, led to a split in the Union. One after another, Southern states were seceding from the United States of America. On January 10, 1861, Florida delegates who were meeting in the state capital, Tallahassee, voted to secede from the U.S. Florida became one of the six original Southern states to form the Confederate States of America; eventually, 11 states would leave the Union.
