AlisLandale 08/01/17 12:46:52 PM #48:	Slavery in 2017 sounds far-fetched. But the idea of a split United/Confederate States in 2017 sounds interesting. And how the two national cultures would have diverged. Maybe the Confederacy actually maintains a super hard "states rights" stance while thr US becomes more and more centralized around the federal government. That dichotomy would be cool.
