When Jefferson Davis became president of the Confederate States of America in February 1861, Southern states solidified their secession from the Union, having already formed the Confederacy following his election. Davis's leadership aimed to unify the Southern states and strengthen their military and political efforts against the North, leading to increased tensions and the eventual outbreak of the Civil War. His presidency was marked by efforts to secure recognition and support from foreign nations, as well as managing the challenges of governing a newly formed nation.
