Where there been two president if the south would have won?
Yes, Lincoln would have continued to be president of the US, and then whoever was elected after him. The first seven states to secede held a meeting in Montgomery, Alabama in February, 1861 and organized the Confederate States of America. They adopted a Constitution and selected Jefferson Davis as the president of this new nation. Davis actually served as "provisional" president for a year. In February, 1862 an election was held, and Davis was elected to be president. There was no opposition candidate. Davis was elected to a single six year term, as prescribed by the Constitution of the Confederacy. Had the south won, or if the war was still going on, there would have been another election in the south in February, 1868.
What did the defeat at Gettysburg mean politically to the Confederates?
- The Confederate loss at the Battle of Gettysburg affected the Confederacy in many ways. It pretty much assured that none of the European powers namely Britain and France would recognize the Confederacy as a viable nation. It also ended the Confederacy's second invasion of the north. Another affect was thhat the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia lost thousands of men in the three day battle that they were not able to replace. One would also have to consider the blow to the morale of the Confederate leadership.

What are the names of the presidents of the confederate states of America?
There was only one, Jefferson Davis of Mississippi. He was selected as "provisional president" by the convention of the seven southern states who had already seceded in February, 1861, after they had drafted the Confederate constitution. He served as "provisional president" until he was regularly elected in the Confederate presidential election in February 1862. No one ran against him. The Confederate Constitution allowed a president to serve a single term of six years, so there was never another election in the Confederacy. Alexander Stephens of Georgia was Vice President. Davis appeared much better qualified than Lincoln at the beginning of the war. He had been a US Senator and Chairman of the Military Affairs Committee of the US Senate. He had been Secretary of War for four years during the Buchanan Administration. He was an authentic hero of the Mexican War, where he commanded a regiment in Mexico and was wounded. He was a graduate of West Point. Lincoln had not been to college, his military experience amounted to about six weeks in the militia during the Black Hawk War in 1832, without seeing any action, and he had served a single two year term as a US Congressman from Illinois. Lincoln was a quick learner though.
