(OOC:Robert E Lee was killed in battle in TTL and a hardliner replaced him) The American Civil War mostly ended in the late 1860's as the South turned to guerrilla warfare. The conflict is widely considered to be a disaster and was seen even by white Southerners, despite their racial attitudes, as an embarrassment. Although race relations after the war were still extremely poor(and remained poor for most of the 20th century), there was little nostalgia for the Confederacy beyond that generation who saw it and the fringe group the "Brothers of the Golden Circle"(OOC:KKK). What can be done to make it possible to depict the Confederacy positively outside of a few obscure books that were commercial failures?
