Actually, the above answer is incorrect. The pro-slave states of the South were called the Confederate States of America (CSA) and the capital was in Montgomery, Alabama with the first president of the confederacy being Jefferson Davis. "Rebel" is just a nickname given to the Confederate soldiers, similar to all US soldiers in WWII being called "yanks," whether they were from the north or south.
