History
Independence; Early Struggles

On July 4, 1980, the Proclamation of Sovereignty was signed in Mobile, Alabama, in which members of the Governments of the States signed their declaration of independence. The State was met with great and fierce resistance, in which the United States claimed it as apart of its Sovereign Territory.

Its Independence wasn't recognized until after the signing of the Treaty of Glasgow, which by then, had been a formality.

Crisis of Faith, Clinton Years; Formidable Force

The 1990s brought a renewed sense of Pride. Bill Clinton had been elected President and helped shape the Confederate Identity. Clinton directed the Government to invest in the formation of a formidable armed forces, and the rebuilding of industry. But the 90s however, saw an unstable foreign and domestic crisis. Clinton's Presidency was what the nation needed, but the Confederacy was shaken by both the Post-War realities, and clashes between Left and Right wing groups, over the direction of the Country. Right Wing groups wanted to enforce a more de-regulated form of Government, which involved states assuming responsibilities but at the same time, pushing an ideological agenda based on Faith and Allegiance. The Left wanted a stronger government, but wanted the nation to be free. These clashes shook the country for the first ten years of its existence.

Clinton's Army plan meanwhile, worked. By 2000, The Confederate States had the world's 7th Largest Army, and the 10th Largest Economy. Despite this, the nation was drifting apart, and sooner or later, it would have to be reigned in.

Republican Rule; Authoritarian Fears

In 2001, Pat Buchannan was sworn in as the nations third President. Buchanan won a highly contested election which highlighted the growing tensions between the Confederate Left and Right. Buchanan's Presidency saw the expansion of Confederate foreign policy, and the rise of the Authoritarian Right in the South.
