During his train ride to his new office, Abraham Lincoln rode a train to over 100 cities in hopes to ease the tension between South and North. During his train ride in Baltimore, Southern Sympathizers to the secessionist cause attacked and murdered the president
on February 23rd. Given the situation of murdering an American President-Elect, many secessionist feeling in many of the border states were actively dealt with. I like how those who supported these guys fled South after trying to violently take over. I love how they thought an armed mob could fight Union Troops looking for Luckett, Hillard, and Cypriano Ferrandiniplus the rest of this crew of murderers. Of course a mob of Unionists ready to hang them, I'm not surprised. With the Bombing of Ft Sumter, the Civil War began.
The newly formed formed Governments never saw the assassination as a crime and even rewarded the murderers
. These governments formed the Confederacy [of course their loose confederacy of Seven States would learn Hannibal (a very appropriate name for him) Hamlin decided to go Andrew Jackson on their traitorous asses
]. Hannibal's army easily beaten and redrafted back the traitorous states in 1863.
Given the Succession Crisis following the hit, would we have the thirteenth Amendment {oot: this is our twenty fifth Amendment} on Succession of the President in case of an death, resignation and incapacitation of the President? What about the war effort? Would the Union war effort be hampered by the mess left over by the attack? Would Texas stayed in the Union? What about the Border States of Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee for they had the closes to succession before the assassination attempt and had confederate governments set up? Would Texas stayed Neutral? Would Kentucky be more neutral? What about diplomacy? Would Great Britain and France recognize them if they hadn't committed blatant sanctioned murder of the President Elect? What about Reconstruction?
