| - Prior to the American Civil War, colored clothing did not exist. It was not until the beginning of Gone with the Wind (which was sometime mid-Wizard of Oz) that color was invented. Shortly after that, in the northern United States, color became more accepted. Many people began to wear colored clothing, with blue being the favored color. Those in the southern part of the country denounced and rejected this practice, believing that colors should be restricted to the fields and the outdoors, and should not be paraded around in public view. This disagreement led to war, pitting the more open-minded Northerners in blue against the stubborn Southerners in black and white (sometimes called the Grays). The Southerners would eventually don gray uniforms and throw (mostly) gray colored rocks in the following war over segregation. During the war that ensued, Abraham Lincoln penned the Epantsimation Proclamation, which did just what the Southerners had feared. It allowed colors to be distributed freely about the country. Those Southerners who sided with Lincoln became known as "People of Color". However, many still opposed the freeing of color. These White Supremacists gathered together and formed an organization known as the Clorox Clan. These men would dress in pure white robes and hoods, and persecute the people of color, believing that the United States was founded in whiteness and should remain that way. They feared that the colors would mingle and blend with the whites, and ruin the purity of their clothes.
- The Confederate States' phasing-out of slavery in the 1880s did not mean the end of mistreatment of the black population of the C.S.A. Numerous laws were put inn place to restrict black rights within the border of the C.S.A., which ultimately led to the Red Rebellion of 1915. These laws were, however, far less of a monstrosity than the Population Reduction eventually perpetrated by President Jake Featherston during the Second Great War. Among the legal restrictions imposed on the black population were:
* They were not permitted to have surnames (although this was not enforced in Cuba, a very permissive state)
* They were required to carry passbooks for identification purposes even for internal travel within the C.S.A.
* They were defined as residents rather than citizens; therefore they did not have the right to vote.
