	The first countries to recognize the Confederacy were England and France, in July, 1864, while the Confederate Army was approaching Washington, D.C. after the [[Northwest Confederacy]] seceded. Both these nations retained favored status in trade with the CSA until the formation of the [[European Union]].		The first countries to recognize the Confederacy were England and France, in July, 1864, while the Confederate Army was approaching Washington, D.C. after the [[Northwest Confederacy]] seceded. Both these nations retained favored status in trade with the CSA until the formation of the [[European Union]].

	Both England an France held significant sway in the CSA, and both were strongly opposed to the continuation of slavery. In the early 1880s, they began to put more pressure on the Confederacy to do away with its "peculiar institution". This created a backlash, and in 1885, [[General Jeb Stuart]] was elected president on a strongly pro-slavery isolationist platform. England began placing tariffs on cotton and tobacco, and refusing to export commercially important goods to the CSA. France soon followed in England's footsteps, as did several other Western European countries, Canada and the USA. After six years of economic hardship caused by these boycotts, the CSA elected [[Custis Lee]] (the son of [[General Robert E. Lee]]) President. He ran on a much more moderate platform, with promises to sort things out with Europe, and find an equitable way to handle the tapering off of slavery. He started the [[Staggered Release Program]], which, amongst other items, prohibited anyone from being born a slave after January, 1895. This caused great controversy in the CSA, ~~and~~ [[Mississippi]] ~~actually seceded~~ from the confederacy, ~~although~~ it ~~had serious economic difficulties and~~ was readmitted in November of 1896.

This caused great controversy in the CSA, culminating in the succession of [[Mississippi]] from the confederacy, this was short-lived as it was readmitted in November of 1896, and it is the view of most modern historians that the fledgling republic's various economic difficulties was the cause of it's return.

	Despite nearly constant border skirmishes, there were no true wars between the [[USA]] and the CSA. However, many battles were fought amongst the four nations early on over [[Kansas]]. [[Kansas]] had been part of the [[Northwest Confederacy]], but, during the [[Western American War]], the [[USA]] tried to take it back. This made the [[CSA]] fear for its own territory, so it too tried to fight with the [[USA]] and the [[Northwest Confederacy]] over [[Kansas]]. Over the next several decades, [[Kansas]] was divided and redivided amongst the four countries.		Despite nearly constant border skirmishes, there were no true wars between the [[USA]] and the CSA.
