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.
What name would these states call themselves after they form a new country (like the Confederates in OTL)? As the title says an alternate name to any sarcastic people out there who'd just say Confederates. Try and be imaginative but have it make sense about the states.
