Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'confederacy'

The Confederate States of America was a breakaway republic of eleven Southern states that existed from 1861 to 1865 during the American Civil War. Formed to preserve slavery and states' rights against perceived Northern aggression, the Confederacy's defeat resulted in the abolition of slavery and Reconstruction.
