Provincial Prerogative is based on Confederate General States' Rights Gist, a Confederate Army general who was killed during the Franklin-Nashville Campaign in November 1864. Provincial prerogative was also the principle by which Geoffrey claimed the northern provinces had a right to secede, just as Jefferson Davis used states' rights as a justification for the creation of the Confederate States. The parallel is problematic, however, since the states were once sovereign entities that willingly ratified the US Constitution, while provinces are mere administrative subdivisions.
