Assuming the CSA is successful in its secession from the Union, it has been brought up many times that it probably cannot survive economically. Revanchism in the north and lack of sustainability in the south may result in re-unification.
Can we list and discuss some of the earliest all the way to the latest possible dates for integration? I'm trying to get a rough timeframe.
And, of course, I have to ask you AHers what the most likely method of such integration would be (if not war) and the results of a victorious South who starved itself into reunifying with the north and the subsequent hurried industrialization. Political ramifications? Etc.
Please discuss as many options as possible.
