Question

At the outset of the secessionist movement in the South, which state defeated the cooperationist argument that the south should act as a unit? A. Virginia B. South Carolina C. Kentucky D. Mississippi

Answer 1

D

Answer 2

i think South Carolina. The cooperationist believed that the south should respond as a unit, and South Carolina at the time was the only state that was separated from the union. They defeated the argument of the cooperationist by having a convention on January 1861 with the other Deep South states to join their secession, and that's where seven other states joined by removing themselves from the union.
