The Confederate States of America (CSA or C.S.), commonly referred to as the Confederacy, was an unrecognized republic[1] in North America that existed from 1861 to 1865.[2] The Confederacy was originally formed by seven secessionist slave-holding states—South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas—in the Lower South region of the United States, whose economy was heavily dependent upon agriculture, particularly cotton, and a plantation system that relied upon the labor of African-American slaves.[3] Convinced that white supremacy[2][4]and the institution of slavery[2][4] were threatened by the November 1860 election of Republican candidate Abraham Lincoln to the U.S. presidency on a platform which opposed the expansion of slavery into the western territories, the Confederacy declared its secession in rebellion against the United States, with the loyal states becoming known as the Union during the ensuing American Civil War.

Creation of Federal Reserve System
Explanation:
An important innovation initiated by Wilson was a complete reorganization of the financial and banking system and monetary circulation. Today, it is difficult for Americans to imagine what kind of financial turmoil reigned in their country from the time of the Civil War until the beginning of the 20th century. At that time, about seven thousand banks were functioning. Gold and silver coins, certificates, notes of the National Bank were in circulation, and all the monetary circulation was under the full control of Wall Street.
To harmonize the financial system with the needs of the economy, Wilson was pushing for a law to create the Federal Reserve System (Fed), which serves as the central bank of the United States. The President adhered to the “golden mean.” He listened to the advice of conservatives and, for the sake of the effective functioning of the financial system, agreed to create 12 regional federal banks. However, the stumbling block was the principle of forming the Fed's board, which, according to the personal plan of Wilson and his progressive advisers, was supposed to regulate its activities. The president had to withstand the extraordinary pressure of banking tycoons accusing him of trying to strip them of control of their property. But he did not make any concessions, considering the appointment of the composition of the board of the Federal Reserve System solely the competence of the president. Therefore, in the management of the Fed, although its ownership is private, the state plays a significant role.
