I found this AAR by chance and I have decided to follow it. Good job winning the war.

Chapter 2 - Birth of a Nation
Despite the recent war to separate ourselves from the Yankees, the Confederate States are still dependent on the North for goods shipped from the Pacific. We must correct this by purchasing a Pacific port of our own.

An aggressive CSA? That's new, always is it that the US declares war first. Exciting!

Confederate Senator Turtledove...I can see that.
And is there actually some event that lets you purchase northern Mexico, or did you have to do a bit of modding? Because the Confederacy making territorial gains in South and Central America was always one of the more ASBatshit insane parts of Turtledove's doorstoppers to me.

Although I voted for Bavaria originally, now I am looking forward to follow this, as it looks just awesome.

That event is the creation of the Freedom and Chains modmod, which you can find in the Pop Demand Mod subforum.
I figured that it was either weaken the Yanks as much as possible while I can still beat them, or be destroyed later on.
Chapter 3 - The Second War Between the States
Our flag is proudly floating on the land and on the main,
Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom!
Beneath it oft we've conquered, and we'll conquer oft again!
Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom!

General Lee's forces go on the offensive, defeating a Northern army in Washington, DC, albeit at the cost of many good Southern lives.
A Confederate expedition is sent to the Nile, in hopes of finding the source.
Over a series of battles, the Yankees lose their main army in the East.
Washington DC is captured, and this time, the Confederacy aims to keep it. Washington was from Virginia, after all!
A marauding Northern army is defeated.
The whole of Maryland and Delaware are occupied by Confederate authorities.
Mexico is placed firmly in the Confederate sphere of influence.
Philadelphia, New York, and Boston fall in quick succession.
Faced with defeat on all fronts, the USA capitulates, and cedes all of the disputed border states to the Confederacy.

There was a distinct lack of resistance in this war, so I loaded up as the USA after the war to find out where their troops were. It turns out that Alaska is SO important that the USA needs more than 30 divisions to defend it.
I'm confused. I thought you couldn't ask for the enemy capital in a peace deal. Also, what's the new capital of the United States?
I'd imagine it'd be Philadelphia, but with this game, you never know.
