Given the situation in Mexico after the Mexican-American War, the state's of Zacatecas, Tabasco, and polities of the Yucatan and Republic of the Rio Grande had sought or temporarily achieved de facto independence. What would occur if as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo those groups, perhaps with one or two others (Sonora + Chihuahua + Baja maybe with Durango and Sinaola?) are *all* given independence? Does this lead to infighting or unity against 'Yanqui' interference? Do these new nations end up US satellites and perhaps later annexed or fiercely independent? And would this influence the Civil War in any recognizable way?
