How Different Would America be Today if the CSA Won?

Marrying your cousin would be perfectly legal? :dunno:

Well Mexico would still probably be in French hands.

The CSA would have most likely abolished slavery by the 1870s.


Maybe the outcome of WW1 would have changed if the CSA stayed out of it successfully as the USA tried to do.

There would most likely have been no Hitler, but there would have been a Stalin, and Stalin killed way more people than Hitler.

We wouldn't be rebuilding countries if we invaded them.


Not to mention ..Most of us probably wouldn't exist, since there would have been considerable changes like someone not meeting someone and marrying them or some poor soul getting killed on the battlefield when in our reality he went on to have 5 children.

I don't believe anyone has mentioned the fact that, even had the CSA won the Civil War....there would have been another "War Between the States" and who knows how that one would have turned out. A CSA victory would not have resulted in a "United States" under CSA rule...and I don't believe the USA would have allowed the CSA to have an extended period of peace before they would have gone after them again....and who knows how that would have turned out.

The big issue really is the CSA never had a chance of winning. This overlooked fact will undoubtedly create a swell of controversy here, but after Chancellorsville, the South pushed upward toward Washington at too great a speed. They lacked foreign support for their efforts mainly because European governments questioned the likelihood of their success, and their economic viability in case of victory. The British leaders, for example, had already outlawed slavery, as well as most other major powers. The North had advantages in terms of both economics and transportation. An unlikely CSA victory would most likely have eventually been followed by some sort of reforming of the union because of economic reasons, along with the end of slavery, which was already becoming less and less monetarily sensible.

stupid dumbass rednecks that started slavery shouldve all been gunned down anyway. they ruined the country to begin with.

We would not be a superpower. That's for sure.

Does anyone think the outcome would be an invasion of the U.S. or the CSA by a foreign power looking to capitalize on two weakened states?

This is not a political discussion. I am merely asking everyone how different it would be.

Personally, I think the racism stuff would a LOT less, and I think (northern) America would be way different. As it stands, I think the system is messed up.

forget it

likely there would be more camaraderie between the two much like there is today between Canada and the USA

There is actually a movie about this. C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America is the movie and the tag line is what if the South won the Civil War?

i need to watch this

The CSA is the Condoms Suck Association. The group set up to boycott condoms being used in porn flicks.

Who cares? It's only North America.
