The Confederate States of America (the Confederacy) fielded both an army and a Navy. Their navy (CSN) was formed by the Confederate government on 21 Feb 1861, with the army (CSA) following in 28 Feb 1861. Stephan R Mallory was their Sect of the Navy, while Confederate President Jefferson Davis functioned as the Sect of the Army until he turned over command to Gen Robert E. Lee.

What kind of military force to the Confederation government?

The Confederation government, established by the Articles of Confederation, lacked a standing military force. Instead, it relied on state militias for defense and had no authority to raise a national army or impose taxes to support one. This decentralized military structure often hampered the Confederation's ability to respond effectively to threats, as states were reluctant to contribute troops or resources for national purposes. Ultimately, the weaknesses in military organization highlighted the need for a stronger federal government, leading to the Constitutional Convention of 1787.


What kind of military force did the conferation government have?

It relied primarily on state militias for defense and could not maintain a standing army or compel states to contribute troops or resources. This lack of centralized military authority hindered its ability to respond effectively to external threats and internal conflicts. Ultimately, the weaknesses in military organization contributed to calls for a stronger federal government, leading to the drafting of the U.S. Constitution.
