The United States of America changed it's name to the Federated States of Appalachia and the seceding states became the United States of New England. British sent ships and renforced their garrisons on the borders with Maine, vermont and new hampshire because New England made claims to territories in Canada. New England claimed that these actions were illegal and were occurring in land belonging to them. The British Blockaded New England ports, New England opened fire and before anyone knew it there was war. Breckinridge feared that New York and Pennsylvania could be threatened because it had a huge border with New England and he asked for volunteers. He didn't want war but thought that by building a formidable military force he could discourage an invasion.
