Hey Guys,

In the TL in my sig at some point the South of the United States (a smaller area than in OTL) secedes due to the Senate trying to force anti-slavery acts upon the Slave owning South. This happens peacefully as a much stronger British North America and Republic of New England threaten to declare war on the US if it dares try and stop the South from independence.

So in 1861 the US officially relinquishes any claim over the states: South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee.

In another thread from which I've copied all the above from I've asked what the nation should be called, but now I'm wondering what the capital of the seceded states would be. Not Montgomery as that's to close to British Louisiana, and obviously nothing in Virginia as that state is still within the Union.

Thanks to anyone who can help :)
