This. It's pretty absurd to think that a "nation" that formed over slavery, fought and bred to protect the institution of slavery, formed of several different states solely based on their shared commitment to slavery, and has slavery enshrined in their very constitution, and had an entire social structure based off of slavery, would suddenly just get over it due to economic pressures is absurd. In this reality we still hold steadfast to our healthcare system despite its costs relative to other 1st world nations and we still hold fast to our guns despite our murder rate exceeding other 1st world nations. I don't see why the south's commitment to slavery would just go away, or why that's particular meaningful. If for some reason slavery actually were to be abolished in the hypothetically victorious Confederacy it's not like the lives of its black population would be propelled much higher. That's still the place where in reality formed black codes/Jim Crow, founded the KKK, and still cherishes its old Confederate leaders. --- Who is?

Would there have been a Hitler if the South had won? i'm sure black ppl would consider Lee or one of the other generals Hitler. yes. I'm black and believe Lee was a stellar statesman. Don't put words in my mouth on the basis of my race, that's racist. But that has absolutely nothing to do with my question. The dynamics and trajectory of 20th Century geopolitics would have been significantly altered by a split in the United States. Hitler's rise stemmed from unfavorable terms at Versailles, which stemmed from the United States tipping the scale in WW1, involvement which stemmed from outrage over the Zimmerman telegram, which threatened mostly states that had been claimed by the Confederacy, which likely would not have had the same economic power for an intervention in Europe of the same magnitude - let alone the same capacity for munitions manufacturing for sale to the Allies which earned the ire of the Central Powers in the first place - never mind neighboring a potentially hostile north with a significant German-American population which would have caused the Confederacy to think twice about spreading itself thin by getting heavily involved in a conflict overseas. --- https://imgur.com/A0TAfek <cite>TheMikh posted [p:904704473] in Cool "...
