abstract
  • In late 2015 the governor of Tennessee, Gov. Mike Jones, held a state-wide meeting in Nashville with representatives from the state congress of Tennessee to discuss the future of the state. Local news agency polls had revealed that over 67.8% of residents were furious about the United States Supreme Court ruling to legalize same-sex marriage. After several failed attempts to overturn the ruling in state and federal courts, th e representatives and the Governor voted to declare themselves an independent nation, taking the name of the Confederate State of Tennessee to reflect their desire to hold true to traditional southern values. On October 27th 2015, the Governor signed the Tennessee Proclamation of Independence and order the Tennessee Army National Guard, Tennessee State Guard and Tennessee State Police to secure and lock-down the borders of the state. On the 28th of October, the Tennessee Air National Guard began air patrols along the borders. The United States agreed to a treaty with Gov. Jones on November 1st, per the terms of the treaty, the United States would allow Tennessee to have their independence without a fight. However, Tennessee was required to forfeit all of the US Army post of Fort Campbell (which was half in Tennessee, half in Kentucky) and the neighboring city of Clarksville, TN to the United States. On November 3rd, 2015, the Tennessee National Guard peacefully gave control of Clarksville to federal troops from the 101st Airborne Division and moved away from the perimeter of Fort Campbell.
