History

Preamble:
As the civil war came to a close and the southern states would fall, a multitude of leaders from the southern states came together to form what was known as The Auburn Confederacy. In this secret alliance, leaders would conspire about ways to end the Northern reign and to restore their "southern pride." The leaders continually emphasized the saying "Deo Vindice" (God will defend us).

Once The Auburn Confederacy joined together and became an official alliance, their leaders sat down and bestowed a list of goals in which they wanted to achieve:

1. To spread their knowledge throughout the world and to every state which is to join. 2. To grow their states and have proper warchests for when war strikes 3. To further their diplomatic ties and become a more diverse alliance.
