Lets say the CSA had won their independence say by negotiations after Lincoln loses reelection. What would be their economic state today? Do you think they would have eventually industrialized to the point of radically changing their economy and way of life? Or would they have remained mostly agricultural with only enough manufacturing to get by? From what I understand countries that are still mostly agricultural are almost exclusively third world and poor. Would a modern CSA be an industrial powerhouse or a poor agricultural society?
