They never made that deal, it was hoped for, but the South never won any grand strategic victories.
The deal was made by Judah p Benjamin but the south never did win a strategic victory
I doubt that. Britain was dependent on American food shipments, which Lincoln promised to cut off if they declared war. It had very little to gain for so much risk. France would never move without British support, so I doubt they made that deal as well.
I’m sure your “source” says otherwise.
This is something from your sources the brits had a large textile industry that depended on southern cotton and with the anaconda plan made the people working in these mills began to starve the same for France. only with France they were also trying to install a Mexican regime under an Austrian royal
You’re right, Britain did require southern cotton. However, once the war started they switched to Indian cotton which was about the same price but a more stable supply, being under British control.
They didn't have a complete substitute to southern cotton
Yes they did, it’s called Indian cotton. The majority of British factories had switched over completely by 1863. Virtually all of them by 1865.
But not right away see right away it was in there best interest to enter the war
Except they were still entirely dependent on imports of food from Union territories.
Piss off the confederacy? You lose an easily replaceable economic resource.
Piss of the Union? You lose a necessary resource for your own survival.
Recession while alive versus prosperity with food shortages? I know which deal I’d make.
But not what they'd make
Post self-deleted by Confederation the south.
are you a Actual Southerner or are you mixed with Carpetbagger ? I Don't Believe any German is Happy that their grandpa got shot by an American Bullet. if you can find a German who's Father or Grandfather was Killed by the "Allies" and is actually Happy about it then you should start searching the Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow.
1 : the Democrats and Republican Parties are two Wings of the same Mangey Bird. the Aristocrats in the South had a disagreement with the Aristocrats in the North, so both sides sent the Regular people to fight each other. all Nations work this Way.
2 : it doesn't matter what Party is Power if the People rose up against Either Party they would face the same Reprisals I laid out, as I said both Parties are two wings of the same mangey Bird
3 : the war would start out as Rural vs Urban, but as towns and Cities get Conquered new Factions would eventually rise, Rural Georgia could starve Atlanta out and occupy it while Rural New York could be dominated by the Urban Population and States could reorganize, although Cities would probably descend into a Free For All allowing the Rural Militias Easy pickings
4: or in case of a "Texit" where the majority of a state wants to leave the Union those who don't (Austin) wouldn't have an choice and would probably go under martial law
and if one state goes some others will want to leave as well and the Feds wouldn't like that. so even if the Secessionists didn't form a Federation they would probably at least be allied against the Feds.
Agreed, this is by far the most unread posts I've seen logging in here.
Oh the civil war general?
I’ll just let them there. Europeia is a nice region after all
Hey guys I just noticed that Masonwoods and Black Men were both ejected from the region. Now I might not agree with everything they said, but they did have a righ to say there mind. We shouldn't just up and ban everybody who disagrees with us, it just makes Dixie look bad. We should allow people too publicly disagree with the confederate cause as long as they remain respectful, it will foster intelligent debate that is rather sorley lacking on most of nationstates.
Confederate Farmers and The free dixie states
*Their minds
And from what I've gathered it had nothing to do with their disagreeing, but harassment via telegrams. I'm gathering evidence from the parties involved, and Masonwoods has been unbanned apparently.
Let's not jump to conclusions.
Yea Confederation of the south told me that Masonwoods was harassing him. (I dont know exactly what was said, but I trust confederation on this.) Black Men messaged me and said that he didnt know who Masonwoods was and had not telegraphed anyone except myself. (He was answering my reporter question, guy said he cant specify who hes working for.) Should we let him back in?
I am Passionate about the subject
I doubt it. Based on the telegrams, he was being disingenuous and attempting to troll. Probably should have guessed it earlier based on his suspicious timing for founding, arrival and name.
I'd say only let him back in if he's willing to be more transparent. I don't claim to be an expert on the matter. But I'm pretty sure reporters usually don't try hiding who they work for. That seems a bit suspect.
Unless he's a Yankee spy sent here by some sorta lefty rag
To do a pice on us.
Or worse! He could be a Reporter in the sense that he reports things to the Mods
And they took a interest in this region.
turns out he is a Raider
It was more than a little obvious.
He seems a little butthurt about being banjected too.
Edit: But he telegrammed me to apologize... I don't get it.
