The point of divergence is that Lincoln doesn't issue the Emacipation Proclamation in 1863, which here means that while the Slaves are freed they don't immediately gain citizenship. That also mean that the Union revisits Lincoln's old plan to resettle the freed Blacks in Liberia and Central America. This is financed by harshly taking large amount of property and wealth from Southerners who supported the Confederacy. Together with the continued actions of the carpetbaggers and other Northern buissnessmen does this make most Southern Whites and few remaining Blacks dirt poor and this also completely breaks their belief in American style Democratic Capitalism. The Southern USA instead becomes a hotbed for Socialism and Anarchism. The result in of scenario is meant to show up in the 1870s, when prominent Northern Politcians and buissnessmen are starting to be assasinated by Southern anarchists called the People's Klan. So does anyone like this scenario or have any good improvements in mind?
