If the Confederacy had won their independence, for at least several years the map of North America would simply display a new eleven state nation. Given the fact that the French were establishing a puppet state in Mexico, most likely a Confederate force would have defeated their intentions in Mexico. If any decent territory could be taken from Northern Mexico, that would have expanded the Confederate borders. There is no doubt that the Union would not let this situation stand. Politically and via economics a new US would have been formed. Industrialization would have ended slavery and a new larger US would have emerged.

How would you compare the system of apartheid with Jim crow and the civil rights movement in the US?

If the actual question is "how" - then I would look at the foundations of these systems, comparing the creation of the Apartheid state in South Africa and the events and ideologies that fostered the creation of Jim Crow in the United States. Then I would compare the actual implementation of these practices... how Apartheid was enforced in South Africa and how Jim Crow was enforced in the south. Then I would look at how these systems were accepted by the populations and what led to their respective downfails/failures...


To what extent do you agree or disagree with the idea that the north had won the civil war before it began?

It could look like that, because of its bigger population and industrial advantages. But there were many moments when the South looked like winning, especially when it came to the General Election of 1864, which Lincoln privately thought he would lose. If that had happened, the new President McLellan would probably have negotiated a peace that could only have meant Southern independence.


What foreign country did the confederates hope would come to their aid?

The Confederates wanted help from Britain, but Britain did not help the Confederates due to the fact that if they would of been supporting the South, it would of made them look like they supported slavery. They also didn't want to go against the North, which they would of done if they would of supported the South.


What made Manchuria attractive to the Japanese?

Manchuria was a logical target for Japanese expansion because Japan was running the South Manchurian railway at the time of the incident. It was also within close range, and would make it easier for the Japanese to get their resources onto the mainland. Another good reason is that China at the time was in a state of civil war, so after bombing the South Manchurian railway, they could easily make it look like communist China's fault and go in looking like they were helping the Chinese.

Would it make the north look bad if they punished the south in the civil war?

I honestly think it would because the north and south were fighting for what they thought was right! Why punish the south after they have already lost the war and had to give up slavery!

Who did the South look to for aid during the Civil War?

The British, or more generally any foreign aid from countries which imported Southern cotton. Southern hope for support from the British ended when President Lincoln introduced the Emancipation Proclamation, since aiding the pro-slavery South would make the British look like hypocrites. (They had banned slavery earlier in the Century)
