During the French Revolution, many women took their knitting to the scene of the guillotine executions. There are several theories on why women did this. Knitting was a common hobby and an opportunity for women to socialize. Executions happened so frequently in revolutionary France that they became a social event. Women would sit, knit, and chat while people were being executed. Also, economically times were tough and many of these women were poor, so it was an alternative source of income.

Secession, as it applies to the outbreak of the American Civil War, comprises the series of events that began on December 20, 1860, and extended through June 8 of the next year when eleven states in the Lower and Upper South severed their ties with the Union. The first seven seceding states of the Lower South set up a provisional government at Montgomery, Alabama. After hostilities began at Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor on April 12, 1861, the border states of Virginia, Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Carolina joined the new government, which then moved its capital to Richmond, Virginia. The Union was thus divided approximately on geographic lines. Twenty-one northern and border states retained the style and title of the United States, while the eleven slave states adopted the nomenclature of the Confederate States of America.
