Free State of Texas (Texas Survives!)

The Free State of Texas was a nation the existed between 1860-1864. It decleared it's independence after the Austin-Washington Letters were revealed to the public. The Pro-Slavery forces in Texas were outraged at the fact that Abolishnists had been plotting with another nation to end slavery. They decided on only one choice: they had to secede from the Republic of Texas and form their own nation that would protect Slavery. However, the Republic of Texas was quick to decide that this "Revolt" needed to be put down and that slavery was now an act of treason. War was decleared on the F.S.T a month after the nation was made, and the young nation was at war.

Pre Civil War
In the one month before war, a government was quickly made until elections could be held, but they never could. President (insert name here) quickly organized the nation, and began raising funds to build up it's miltary. A large militia was raised until a professional one could be made. However, war was soon decleared on F.S.T by the Republic of Texas.
