Dixieland: A Modern Day Confederacy

Making a British intervention on behalf of a slave power seem realistic is always tricky.

What would actually come to mind is a brutal repression of a slave Rebellion in one of the slaveholding Border states by the Union army, say in 1862, on Lincoln's orders or with minimal repercussions to the perpetrators. To get the British aboard, I think you have to reduce the North's moral credibility a LOT.
 
So is Kentucky part of the CSA? If so they, must have not only won a Gettysburg but done well in their Kentucky campaign too, which would indicate we had a really decisive win for the Rebs other than just Gettysburg.

Interested in the CSA's ruling party's foreign policy toward the USA. How will they tread the line between preventing yankee domination and keeping healthy relations with their biggest trade partner? Among the other issues will have to be the border situation. With undoubtedly unfavorable conditions, many blacks will probably wish to leave for the North as they did OTL but will find additional complications...

Also, the politicians in this are fictitious but mirror real life. People. So do expect a Wallace type character running

Of the two nations, the US might be bigger but the CSA is way more powerful, despite having 19 states and a handful of territories.

You are seriously dancing on a knife edge here.

This thread is being reported about three times a day. So far you haven't posted anything of substance besides the map, which you deleted, but was reported before deletion and seems to indicate that you are trying to disguise a current political T/L.

You SO don't want to do that, not straight out of the gate.

I said that the map had an error. As I said in another forum, I've been a bit busy and haven't been able to tend to things

Also, at least three of your listed presidents are Yankees.

And at least three of presidents have born decades after POD.

And how did Robert E. Lee lived much longer than in OTL? I am pretty sure that he wouldn't live much longer than in OTL with Gettysburg POD.

Didn't he have a heart attack pre-Gettysburg?
