  • The year is 1860. What is happening? Slavery is a big issue in the United States. Some people are actually thinking about seceding from the USA. In November, Abraham Lincoln is elected President. South Carolina secedes on the grounds that Lincoln is an abolitionist. In 1861, Lincoln is shot on his way to Washington to be inaugurated. (An attempt on his life was actually made OTL along the way. It failed and only shot his hat.) The USA collapses into anarchy. Seizing the chance, more states secede. The southern states of Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, North Carolina, Texas, and Virginia secede. Days later, Northwestern Virginia secedes from Virginia and forms West Virginia which is reunited with the Union. After a national emergency, Incumbent President James Buchanan leaves late in May to be replaced by Vice President Elect Hannibal Hamlin, who becomes the President. His Vice President is William H. Seward of New York. However, several other states secede in the gap between March and May on the ground that the USA is weak. On October 1, 1861, the United States was dissolved by New York, New Jersey, Maine, Indiana, and Ohio.
