The only reason it failed is that the North chose to fight. Not so sure that would happen again.

Look at post 70. I agree with him. I think there would be a fight. Today many good ports, as well as Naval, Marine and Air Force facilities. Also, someone else pointed out, the federal government owns large swaths of land in California. We may not like it, that the Feds own much land, but at the moment, they do. Yes, I think there would be a fight. Also, California does not have a military force, as the Confederate states did. My humble opinion. 🙃😄
