i don't know but i hope the usa puts the csa through an alternate reconstruction which beats them down and breaks their will breaks them forever i like the wry humor turtledove interjected that they call it the freedom party of course no one thinks they're bad and the states' rights and pro slavery groups during otl civil war thought they were just new revolutionaries admittedly they weren't the ficional character jake featherston nonetheless i keep thinking of the end of drive to the east where pittsburg stalingrad is finally wiping out the csa army and two csa soldiers are just going on about how it's about freedom and their right to not have the us tell them what to do dude they wiped out the south's blacks in an alternate holocaust nerve gassed thousands of people in ohio etc etc i'm glad that charleston were the secession started wound up as ash floating around in the atmosphere
