After the battle of Manassas, the Confederates advance on Washington D!.C!. and force Lincoln to recognize the independence of the CSA!. Maryland, Delaware, Kentucky, Missouri, also succeed along with New Mexico territory and the Indian territory (Oklahoma)!. Ten years later, cotton isn't in as high of a demand in Europe, the South begins to industrialize, and slavery ends!. The CSA decides it needs to re-unify with the USA, but the Northern states say no!. Thousands of out of work freed slaves migrate North where they aren't wanted either!. Illegal immigration becomes an issue between the CSA and USA over former black slaves!. Finally, in 1898, a bankrupt CSA allies itself with the USA in a war against Spain!. In 1900, reunification is official, just like no civil war ever happened!. Blacks remain poor and society remains segregated until this day!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
