Confederate States of America

The Confederate States of America, also known as the Confederacy or the CSA, was a federal state on Earth which existed was proclaimed by several states that had attempted to secede from the United States from 1861 to 1865. The Confederate States was located on the continent of North America, and its states had broken away from the Union mainly because of a desire to preserve the institution of slavery from the perceived abolitionist intentions of newly-elected United States President Abraham Lincoln.

Soon after its founding, the Confederate States entered into a military conflict against the United States which would become known as the American Civil War. The war lasted for four years, which Lincoln lamented as a bloody conflict "at the hands of their brothers." Upon its defeat, the Confederate States collapsed, and the seceded states were all eventually readmitted to the Union.
