Because they had their own plan to keep slavery permanently, troll.
There are a lot of things about slavery and the civil war that nobody is taught. Not just anymore, but ever. A lot of parts of it have been completely covered up by the people who won it.
Nonsense. Your stuff isn't new, and it certainly isn't true. It's what Americans were being taught for decades in the interests of "national unity."
There is no place more appropriate for DiogeneseLamp to post than on a thread dealing with alternate history.
DiogeneseLamp = DiogenesLamp. My apologies for the misspelling
Well if they had just stayed in the Union, slavery would have been permanent. If they hadn't tried to escape Washington, the United States would probably still have legal slavery.
Sorta makes you think that Lincoln really didn't fight the war over slavery.

Well I don't know about you, but when I went to school, nobody ever taught us that Lincoln sent a war fleet to Charleston with orders to attack the Confederates.
I never learned anything about that war fleet until the last two years. I also didn't know Lincoln was going to make slavery permanent if he could just keep control over the Southern states. They didn't teach us that in school either.
