Southern states that seceded from the Union called themselves the Confederate States of America (CSA). This new government was formed in 1861 and was comprised of eleven states that sought to maintain slavery and assert their rights against what they perceived as Northern aggression. The Confederacy existed until its defeat in 1865 during the Civil War.
