Confederate States of America

The Confederate submarine, the Hunley was the first submarine to successfully sink a warship. It however, was dragged down to destruction during the battle in Charleston Harbor.

It is almost certainly fake. The Confederacy did take over the former US Mint branch in New Orleans, and did strike a very few half dollars and one cent pieces in 1861. This was all the coinage produced by the Confederacy, and the very, very few surviving examples are extremely scarce and very valuable. Both the Confederate half dollar and penny have been extensively reproduced, and you almost certainly have one of this very numerous replicas.

Britain and France.

The British increasingly saw the USA as a fast-growing economic rival, and were not displeased to see it divided. Also, some of the older Tories still thought the American Revolution was a bit of cheek, and looked forward to a bit of 'trouble in Paradise'.

The French wanted influence in Mexico, and it would suit them if there was a new nation, pro-French, in between Mexico and the USA. (The French were taking their lead from the British - "We will, if you will".)

The Confederates had sent their representatives to London and Paris, to lobby for official recognition. And in the Summer of 1862, as Lee drove the Union army back across Virginia, the Confederacy was gaining credibility, and the British were close to recognising the Davis government.

A deeply worried Lincoln wanted to head them off by declaring the war to be a crusade against the evils of slavery (which it hadn't been), so that they could not intervene without looking pro-slavery themselves. But he could not do this while he was losing the war, or it would look like a desperate measure. Only after the unexpected Union victory at Antietam in September '62 was he able to do this, by issuing the Emancipation Proclamation.

So in the end, Britain and France had to stay out of it.

The quality of its Generals, and a powerful mission-imperative: to defend the homeland against the invader.

Yes.

During the French and Indian War, The Iroquois Confederation dominated much of present-day Upstate New York and the Ohio Country, although the latter also included populations of Delaware and Shawnee.

Some people objected to conscription, and the Governor of Georgia said that troops raised in his state should only be used for defense of that state.

The Confederacy was a de fact government because it had the following components:1. A central government;

2. A constitution;

3. A standing army; and

4. its own currency.

The South had a fighting chance despite a huge advantage the North had. One way to win was to hang on until Northerners grew tired of fighting and losing lives.

The President of the Confederate States of America (they were only around long enough to need one) was "Jefferson Davis".

They should face North, to protect against the Northern aggression

Abraham Lincoln was President of the United States of America when the Confederate States of America (CSA) formed. The first and only President of the CSA was Jefferson Davis.

Confederate sea raiders help protect drove foreign ships bringing supplies to the South. They also hurt the U.S. Merchant Marine fleet.

Major General Wade Hampton had been a distinguished Confederate officer. He had been wounded but later, when healed he returned to active duty. Hampton was part of J.E.B. Stuart's cavalry unit when Stuart was wounded and died in 1864. Hampton was chosen to replace him. The Army of Northern Virginia was well served by Hampton.

Montgomery, Alabama was the capital of the Confederate States of America from February 4 until May 29, 1861. The confederate capital moved to Richmond, Virginia in May 1861. The Confederate government moved to Danville, Virginia in 1865 as Richmond fell to the Federal army.

United Daughters of the Confederacy was created in 1894.

Richmond, Virginia was the capital of the Confederate States of America. It is 100 miles from Washington D.C. Montgomery, Alabama was the capital of the Confederate States of America from February 4 until May 29, 1861. The confederate capital moved to Richmond, Virginia in May 1861. The Confederate government moved to Danville, Virginia in 1865 as Richmond fell to the Federal army.

They succeeded in protest of the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 because he was an abolitionist (anti-slavery) and they where afraid he would abolish (get ride of) slavery in all states. A: Lincoln was not an abolitionist he just wanted to preserve the union.

Actually in 1860-1861 eleven Southern states joined the Confederacy.

Because they're southern. The confederate flag does not mean slavery, it's just the south's flag.

The Confederate constitution is said to have one reasonable feature concerning the term limit of Confederate presidents. The term of any Confederate president was six years with no chance for a reelection. This idea does have merit. Unlike today, where US presidents have to devote time & money on campaigning for a second term, the Confederate president has no such obligation. One flaw of the current two term limit in the US constitution is this. On the pretext of of making political speeches around the country and explaining current and future policies, a president uses tax payer dollars to promote themselves and their future policies if reelected.

The official name of the "Confederacy" was the "Confederate States of America".
