tfw everything south of Mason-Dixon and east of the Mississippi becomes Federal Territories
Good update nice way to make the south think the north will murder anyone and that will push border states
Cool, and update! Needs a threadmark though. Seems the south has been much more riled up than OTL. And 1859, so close to the election? This will indeed be a brutal war.
I find it ironic that Virginia found him guilty of Armed Rebellion.
The clock of rebellion is ticking to midnight...
Damn, this Civil War is shaping up to be so bad it's gonna need Serbian accordion players.

Such a good TL so far. All it needs is for Britain or Imperial France (more likely Imperial France cause the more furious southern push for Slavery wouldn't be popular in Britain) to join the side of the confederacy
France is probably still going to be too busy in Mexico.Such a good TL so far. All it needs is for Britain or Imperial France (more likely Imperial France cause the more furious southern push for Slavery wouldn't be popular in Britain) to join the side of the confederacy
Getting an independent confederacy ensures they win in MexicoFrance is probably still going to be too busy in Mexico.

CSA is in the business of buying ironclads from the UK in OTL, can't see them selling any TTL, can't see the Brits being the slightest bit interested in anything the CSA could put together, either.Sorry couple of questions.
With a more raidcal war will the south go full ss on black union forces.
Also i don't know the confederates money situation but their not going to be able to break that blockade and a more radical union will place more threats on people trading so could the confederacy sell their ironclad to the brits for loads of money as they would be interested.
Not even the CSS Georgia? All i here from americans when it comes victorian war between america and uk victorian era is that USA ironclads are the best thing ever like the tiger tank. (Btw this is not me shitting on americans or i just keep hearing us navy op)CSA is in the business of buying ironclads from the UK in OTL, can't see them selling any TTL, can't see the Brits being the slightest bit interested in anything the CSA could put together, either.
I mean given the RN of the era was almost all wodden ships still it was kinda a mismatch. The problem is most ironclads are all barely seaworthy . They're better at ricer warfare for sure.Not even the CSS Georgia?

You mean this ship who's engines were so underpowered thet couldn't move her with them?But what about CSS Georgia sell that for a pretty penny.
U damn right just don't tell the brits tell them they cant take it out as they dont eant to get scratches on it from union cannons.You mean this ship who's engines were so underpowered thet couldn't move her with them?
Piece of junk from what I've seen, Albemarle, Tennessee II, Virginia II and the other late war James River ironclad were probably the best of the lot, but, nothing there to interest any European naval power...most CSA armored vessels were little more than barely mobile floating batteries. USN equipment was slightly better, but nothing to write home about. The turtleback twin turret Eads monitors might make someone a decent coast defense vessel, specially if armed with CSA Brooke rifled cannon, but that's about it...But what about CSS Georgia sell that for a pretty penny.
