The state song is "West Virginia Hills" by Mrs. Ellen King and H.E. Engle. West Virginia used to be part of Virginia until the Civil War when Virginia seceded while the western half of the state stayed with the Union, becoming its own state. The whole state is covered with mountains and forests, which is a theme that shapes many songs about the state. Other themes that define West Virginia include logging, coal mining, skiing, caves and limestone caverns.
