North American Politics After CSA Victory

They all deal with different topics and given the number of threads that have come up recently dealing with the topic of the ACW I felt that they would be of interest to others as well. I was unable to find any threads dealing specifically with questions such as a new capital for the US.
But, you could've as many questions as you liked about every related topic on one research thread, AS WE NORMALLY DO. And you've already done a time or two, like for your SST thread. More just brings about more thread fatigue, hence my annoyance. Plus, we just had a long, thorough confederate imperialism thread, side by side with a not dissimilar navy thread, not all that long after another predecessor. Now the topic's tired and almost everything's been recently contributed. Why do we need zillions more?

Generally, the Confederacy's perpetually overcovered and tired, along with Nazi Germany. You aren't helping. Hence the recent which topic's more overcovered thread.

And, if you use GOOGLE to search, you can find plenty of alternate capital threads, including a rotating capital thread that resurfaced recently, and tons more confederate threads of every kind.

Do you mean the part about the CSA not firing the first shot of the war
That bit - that's only the key to your TL, whole justication for it. There is no TL outside ASBland if it doesn't work, which it doesn't, so shouldn't you should stop wasting so MUCH of our time?

If you have nothing constructive to add to these topics you can simply stop reading and replying to them, just like everyone else does. No one else is posting in topics to say that they think the topic or the poster sucks, the issue right now is solely with you and your inability to control your behavior. If you wish to offer constructive input on my threads you are welcome to do so, if you just want to rant and try to derail them to be about you and your issues I will report you for spamming my threads.
 
Couple of ideas:

Let's say the South also doesn't fire first- how long could the stalemate hang on? Could there be a negotiated exit if it lasts until 1864?

Also, on the W.Virginia case, could a land swap be made WV for Indian territory or part of New Mexico? I assume the Confederates wouldn't want to press their luck too much, especially if they got Europeans involved (only way I can see them winning)

Well, there's the still the little detail that you're still totally repeatedly in ASBland, ignoring both me and Fiver repeatedly on that, and you haven't fixed that. I'm not going to shut up about that any more than Fiver has.

Feel free to report me for following the rules of the game - rather more than you, who've done so MANY fine threads.

What have I written that's personal?
 
Perhaps a referendum could be held in West Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky, and the other border states as part of the final territorial settlement? Also, the southern parts of the New Mexico Territory (around the Gadsden Purchase) were pro-CSA, perhaps the territory could be sold to the CSA for a few million dollars?

Any of these would be political suicide for any northern politician. The majority of these states wanted to stay in the Union and even before the ACW, the south had a track record of using fraud and violence in referendums. Agreeing to these referendums would also establish a precedent that guarantees the rump US would balkanize well before 1950.

Such a treaty would only pass if the US Congress was being held at gunpoint by Confederate troops and would be immediately repudiated. This almost certainly leads to the war re-igniting, at a minimum the Confederacy will be dealing with decades of geuerilla warfare in Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky, and Arizona.

That is no where near an accurate comparison. The CSA was fighting a defensive war in an era in which the defense was at an advantage

[FONT=&quot]Fighting a defensive war doesn't get them West Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky, and Arizona. All OTL Confederate attempts to seize Union territory failed miserably. For the Confederacy to gain any of these is wanking the Confederacy. For them to gain all puts TTL firmly into ASB territory.[/FONT]
