- Q4743413 abstract "American Civil War alternate histories are texts wherein events during the American Civil War occurred differently from those in history. The most common variant of these detail the victory and survival of the Confederate States of America. Less common variants include a Union victory under different circumstances than in actual history, resulting in a different post-war situation; African-American slaves freeing themselves by revolt without waiting for Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation; a direct British intervention in the war; the survival of Lincoln during John Wilkes Booth's assassination attempt; a retelling of historical events with fantasy elements inserted; and secret history tales. The point of divergence in such a story can either be a "natural, realistic" event (such as one general making a different decision than he did in our timeline, or one sentry detecting an enemy invasion which he failed notice in reality), or else it can be an "unnatural" fantasy/science fiction plot device such as time travel, which usually takes the form of someone bringing modern weapons or hindsight knowledge into the past. American Civil War alternate histories are one of the two most popular points of divergence to create an alternate history in the English language, the other being an Axis victory in World War II.Depictions of the later development of a victorious Confederacy vary considerably from each other – especially on two major, inter-related issues: An independent Confederacy's treatment of its Black population and its relations with the rump USA to its north.In the mockumentary C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America slavery continues up to the present, including a chilling depiction of "an electronic slave auction" carried on via the internet. However, most other alternate histories assume that, even when succeeding to become independent with its "peculiar institution" intact, the Confederacy would have still eventually put an end to slavery. In Grey Victory, set in the immediate aftermath of the war, the Confederacy is faced with both subversion by northern Abolitionists and the increasing organization and assertiveness of the Blacks themselves, and the story gives the clear impression that, no matter who wins, the end of slavery is inevitable. In several other depictions, such as Bring the Jubilee and The Guns of the South, freeing the slaves is attributed to Robert E. Lee, who in all these works becomes the second Confederate President. It is logical to assume that his prestige would have run high, making him a plausible candidate to succeed Jefferson Davis, although the position he would have taken regarding slavery is the subject of some debate. However, ending slavery would not necessarily provide equality for Blacks. In Bring the Jubilee Blacks, despite President Lee's grand gesture, remain disenfranchised into the 20th Century (as are the people of Latin America who were in this timeline annexed by the Confederacy). The same is true for Harry Turtledove's Southern Victory series – where it is President James Longstreet who frees the slaves as a prerequisite for retaining British and French support for the Confederacy, but Blacks remain a very oppressed and discriminated underclass, denied basic civil rights. In later volumes of the series the Blacks burst out in brutal armed rebellions which are met with equal brutality from White authorities, who then make them the target of a terrible Holocaust-like genocide.In Bring the Jubilee, the rump USA is completely broken down by its defeat, becoming an impoverished and backward country while the Confederacy goes on to annex everything to its south as far as Tierra del Fuego (barring the Republic of Haiti) and become a major world power. In the CSA mockumentary, the USA is annexed by the CSA upon winning the war - a historical inaccuracy, as this was strictly against CSA doctrine and impracticable for a host of other reasons. But most other alternate histories assume that, even if losing its southern part, the US would remain a major economic and military power. In Grey Victory, Abolitionists seek to provoke the US and the Confederacy into a new war. In By Force of Arms, an attempt at reconciliation fails and after a few years they are at war again. More optimistic results occur in The Guns of the South and several other works, where the two nations settle down into reasonable good neighborly relations within a few years of the war's end, and in some cases agree to reunite as one nation after 50 or 100 years of being apart. By stark contrast, in Southern Victory they develop into hereditary enemies who go to war again every decade or two and who spend the rest of the time preparing for new war, becoming entangled in webs of worldwide military alliances. In the 1914 of Southern Victory, US and Confederacy are drawn into the worldwide war immediately following the Archduke's murder, and open an American Front of trench warfare, every bit as terrible as the ones in Europe. Conversely, the 1914 of "A Hard Day for Mother" (in Alternate Generals 1) by William R. Forstchen sees the amicable treaty of reconciliation and voluntary reunification between the two nations.In If the South Had Won the Civil War by MacKinlay Kantor, reunification comes later: during the 20th Century the USA, CSA and Texas (which seceded from the CSA) become economically integrated and in both World Wars, they all fight against Germany as close allies. Following WWII, USA, CSA and Texas all feel threatened by Soviet missile bases and armored brigades in Alaska (which was never purchased from Russia). Therefore, they announce a formal reunification in 1961, on the precise centennial of Fort Sumter. Conversely, the GURPS game presents a 1993 in which the U.S.A. and C.S.A. still watch each other warily across an armed border that stretches to the Pacific.".
