No it was not legal, it clearly states in the 10th Amendment "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Meaning that they could secede if the state wanted to since the federal goverment wasn't reserved that power.

Yes it was illegal. It was considered a violation of the amendments and that's why war was necessary to make people agree on something for once. The Confederate States made their own amendments once they seceded but technically, they never actually left the north so those new amendments were considered null and void.

Following the Opium Was, what were the outcomes of the Treaty of Ninijing?
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Treaty of Nanjing, (August 29, 1842) treaty that ended the first Opium War, the first of the unequal treaties between China and foreign imperialist powers. China paid the British an indemnity, ceded the territory of Hong Kong, and agreed to establish a “fair and reasonable” tariff. British merchants, who had previously been allowed to trade only at Guangzhou (Canton), were now permitted to trade at five “treaty ports” and with whomever they pleased (see Canton system). The treaty was supplemented in 1843 by the British Supplementary Treaty of the Bogue, which allowed British citizens to be tried in British courts and granted Britain any rights in China that China might grant to other countries. See also British East India Company; Lin Zexu.
