Another name for the southern states before the Civil War is the "Confederate States" or simply the "South." These states seceded from the Union and formed the Confederate States of America in 1861, primarily to preserve the institution of slavery and their way of life. The term "Dixie" is also commonly used to refer to this region during that era.
