Remember, Birmingham was only founded in 1871. So we might see a similar metropolis in the same location, but it could end up with a different name.
Any plausible names?

Then you've pretty much ruined St Louis as an asset to the Confederacy as you've not only seen a majority of the population leave but it was that group which caused St Louis to expand and prosper.
Why would Spain offer to sell a colony, something they consistently refused to do throughout their colonial history, no matter how poor their finances?

I doubt if France will be happy with the Confeds.Perhaps a French British Confederate-Spanish War?
I doubt if the CS would set up a Naval Academy. OTL Va's VMI, SC's Citadel, and GA's GMI, and other State Military Institutes, send Graduates to the Army on the same equality as West Point.Mobile was known for it’s ironclad and frigate production and by 1868, the “Confederate States Naval Academy” was set up in the city.
I doubt if France will be happy with the Confeds.
There were several prominent Southern Senators who gave speeches during the War, supporting the Monroe Doctrine, and calling on the CS to join with the US to enforce it.
Post war the CS will join in the US notes calling for France to withdraw fromMexico.
I doubt if the CS would set up a Naval Academy. OTL Va's VMI, SC's Citadel, and GA's GMI, and other State Military Institutes, send Graduates to the Army on the same equality as West Point.
In a CS wins TL I see the State Run Military & Naval Institutes stepping up and taking the place of any Federal Institutes.
