North America would probably look like South America. If the South won, it would legitimize secession, so I could see other secessionist-type movements happen and the US just letting it happen because of the trauma of the civil war. Maybe the former US could be a major regional power with its industrial base, but probably not a superpower. The Confederates would be a third-world theocracy if it continued with its trajectory. Slavery in the South would eventually end because it was an outdated institution even then, but it would have lasted longer and civil rights afterwards would be even more of a mess.
