As part of the treaty that ended the War of 1812, the USA agreed to end the importation and use of slaves. States that used slavery however refused to recognised the right of the federal government to regulate what they perceived as strictly an internal commercial matter of the states. The conflict escalated to the point that the slaves holding states seceded to form a confederation of their own and keep their way of life. Following a short war with the Federated Republic of America, it obtained the Missouri territory.

  • As part of the treaty that ended the War of 1812, the USA agreed to end the importation and use of slaves. States that used slavery however refused to recognised the right of the federal government to regulate what they perceived as strictly an internal commercial matter of the states. The conflict escalated to the point that the slaves holding states seceded to form a confederation of their own and keep their way of life. The plan however didn't work as expected. The new confederation found itself shut out of the european market as France, the UK and their allies refused to allow in any of their products or even recognised their sovereignty until they gave up slavery. The CSS eventualy agreed and the slaves were bought out by the government but due to economical factors the vast majority ended up entering into contracts with their former masters that made them little more then indentured workers. Following a short war with the Federated Republic of America, it obtained the Missouri territory.
