Alternate historians, or at least the non-elite general public that likes what ifs, seem to have an obsession with the CSA in alternate history, and the CSA winning the civil war, or the CSA just popping up somewhere for some reason is really common (whether because of the US getting conquered or it just going rogue again in some second civil war or whatever) is common. But I'm curious as to why this obsession really came to be and where it stems from? Anyone have any thoughts?
