The Confederate States of Robloxia, commonly referred to as the Confederate States, the Confederacy, or the South, was an unrecognized breakaway republic in Southern Robloxia that existed in Robloxia. The republic was founded by Ru Rux Ran supporter Tristan T. Gifford or Tristler. The republic was ensured by Cleanse A. H. Gifford. Internally referred to as a group or organisation, it was externally referred to as an historical country, segregated the Bloxveld-robloxians and foreigners and that were later kept as slaves. On June 1, 1867, the Confederate States of Robloxia stopped existing.

After the succession of South Bloxlina in December 1860, several slave owning states followed suit, and on February 10th, 1861, Balabama officially established the confederacy, with Blorida later joining 1 month later, alongside Bloxas, Reorgia, Bloxouisiana, South Bloxlina. Later, Bloxarkansas and North Bloxlina succeeded, and later joined the Confederacy.

The formation of the confederacy was in regards to the tensions to the northern United States, who relied on more industrial forms for their economy; whilst the south relied on the southern slave trade of products such as Tobacco, Cotton, and Wool. After the first succession, being South Bloxlina, state governor John Paul stated, "It is a state's right, although amended by a national government, to leave the union, whenever they pleased. And today we are pleased to, as a result of the north's aggression to our way of business."

Later, on April 12th, 1861, Confederate forces fired cannons at Fort Bloxter, in Ro-Charlestown, South Bloxlina, initiating the first battle of the Robloxian Civil War, where Fort Bloxter would hold out for 6 days before surrendering to Confederate forces.

The Confederate States have been a major figure of controversy across Robloxia, with some southern Robloxians referring to the Confederate (And or rebel flag of the south), as a part of their heritage, and history. Whilst other Robloxians have stated that it is racist and discriminatory to BloxAfrican-Robloxians. Today, some statues of Confederate figures, such as Tristan T. Gifford, and Bloxbert E. Lee, remain today, although most of these have been taken down, or destroyed during protests and demonstrations in 2020.

Etymology

The Confederacy has been devised into multiple names as used throughout many history books regarding the Robloxian Civil War. Officially, they are known as the Confederate States of Robloxia, whilst some refer to them as simply "Confederates" or the "Confederacy". Some others also call them the south, due to the fact that a majority of the states were southern slave owning states.

History and Founding

Background

The history of the Confederate states ties it to the long series between the North (Union), and the Southern confederacy, regarding the racial tensions. The North was built on a more industrial economy, whilst the sale of cotton and tobacco in the south boosted the south's economy into a major surplus, with the South trading with some of Eurobloxia's strongest powers, Bloxia Empire, Ro-Gaulia, and Ro-Spain.

On December 29th, 1845, The Republic of Bloxas would be admitted to the Union as the 28th state, along with it brought disputed claims of territory with the Bloxmexican Empire, which later lead to a conflict which ended in 1848, with the founding of new Robloxian territories, along with new states. There had been a perfect balance between the North and Southern states, meaning that no one could rule over the other. However, with the annexations of new territory, the fear that one side would overrule the other, members of the Democratic (Southern) and Republican (North) begin arguing in congress, and some even brought weaponry in self-defense.

Bloody Ro-Kansas and further Tensions

As more new states and territories were formed, such as Ro-Kansas, many Southern and Northern settlers quickly moved into the area in attempts to sway the vote into their favor, there would also be a series of massacres, known as Bloody Ro-Kansas, in which Northers and Southerners engaged in brawls, gun fights, with an estimate of 500 - 520 being killed in the massacres.

In the end, the Northern were able to make it a non-slave state, and proposed the Bloxissouri compromise line, which meant that above the states of Bloxissouri, there could be no slave trade. However, many Bloxissouri Plantation owners refused to let their slaves go, and even began to arm themselves.

Bloxharper's Ferry Incident

From October 14th to October 17th, 1859, John Bloxrown's raid on Harpers Ferry was an effort by abolitionist John Brown, from October 16 to 18, 1859, to initiate a slave revolt in Southern states by taking over the United States arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia (since 1863, West Virginia).

Bloxrown's party of 22 was defeated by a company of U.S. Marines, led by First Lieutenant Israel Greene. Ten of the raiders were killed during the raid, seven were tried and executed afterwards, and five escaped. Several of those present at the raid would later be involved in the Civil War: Colonel Robert E. Lee was in overall command of the operation to retake the arsenal. StoneBlox Jackson and John McRay were among the troops guarding the arrested Bloxrown.

Bloxrown would later be executed by a group of militia men in the town of Scatsville, West Bloxvirginia.

Some Northerners would see Bloxrown as a martyr, praising him for his actions, which furthered tensions between the north and south, and Eastern Robloxian Governor, and future Confederate President Tristan T. Gifford, later stated, "It is the goal of the north to take away our way of life, our business, and the state's rights."

1860 Presidential Election

In the 1860 Election, Noobly Bloxington run for the Republican Party, and Bloridian Governor Andrew C. Bloxdouglas run for president for the Democrats. Many southern slave owners feared that he could put the end of slavery into effect, and 6 Southern States, (South Bloxlina, North Bloxlina, Bloxas, Blorida, Eastern Robloxia, and Reorgia) hadn't even featured Bloxington's name on the presidential vote ballot.

However, despite this, Bloxington would win in a major landslide, securing his presidency. However, Bloxington would have to be careful, knowing that there were some southern assassins who planned on killing him, Bloxington would ride on a heavily armored Northern trade into Roblox City, to give his inaugural speech.

Succession of Southern States

In December of 1860, the state of South Bloxlina officially ceded from the United States, and later, several more southern states followed suit, Eastern Robloxia, Blorida, Reorgia, Bloxas, Bloxvirginia, Bloxarkansas, Bloxennessee, and North Bloxlina, all left the union.

Later, on February 10th, 1861, Bloxissippisippi officially formed the Confederacy, which would quickly gain the attention of other southern states, who quickly joined the Confederacy.

A total of 5 slave states did not join the Confederacy; Ro-Kentucky Bloxissouri, Bloxware, Ro-Maryland, and Bloccohoma, although the Confederates would later occupy parts of each of the states.

Battle of Fort Bloxter

Fort Bloxter, 1861

On the night of April 12, 1861, several Confederate Militias, of around 500-600 personnel, requested the surrender of an undersupplied, Fort Bloxter, off the coast of Ro-Charlestown, South Bloxlina, however, after several of the Union Army refused, several members of Confederate militias begin to open fire with cannons and weaponry at Fort Bloxter, and after 1 day of fighting, the Union surrendered the fort.

The battle of Fort Bloxter is most often seen as the start of the Robloxian Civil War, and the start of the conflict, some Confederates also believed it was the end of the war, believing that Bloxington wouldn't do much about the attacks on the fort.
