Maybe

But theres no way there would have been peaceful coexistence between the USA and CSA. You cant have a slave nation and nonslave nation like these two, being peaceful with each other.

I don't think the CSA would have continued slavery. Some historians believe it would have ended even had the South seceded, probably within another generation or two.

Interesting to speculate what would have happened on the world stage. Perhaps no U.S. entry into World War One, which would have ended in a stalemate. No Hitler, WW2, spread of Communism, or Vietnam...

Slavery was already on the way out in 1865. Technology was on the brink of making it unnecessary and too expensive. Within 20 years it would have died out on its own.
