To this day, the Confederados proudly celebrate their heritage.

Kind of. But they speak Portuguese now and are well assimilated into the kind of country their ancestors would have hated.

Oh, a lot of the Confederados would disagree with you about that. Check out A Faint Sound of Dixie.

As one Confederado says (in English) in that video, they are the only truly unreconstructed Southerners left in the world. They're the real thing.
