Depends on the Constitution, and how well the New South structures it's laws and law enforcement.

If Texas seceded, it will form its own country, not join with any other state. It will be happy to enter into treaties with any other country, including any other US state that secedes and forms its own country.

No way would Austin be the capital. Hell it is to the left of DC practically now.

Didn’t mean to downvote, hit the wrong button! Sorry!

We would take the Constitution with us by force if necessary. It's not like they need that old price of paper.

Not advocating secession under any circumstances,
I was very anti-secession but not anymore. If the left can cheat and steal an election then it's time to go out on our own.
quote:
the south would secede from the union...
It wouldn't be just the south, 3/4s of the US would join.
quote:
(1) Which city would you like to have as its capital?
Birmingham, Alabama would be a likely choice.
quote:
(3) What kind of a constitution?
Something similar to what we have now but with a stronger Bill of Rights for more personal freedom.
quote:
(4) Who would be its George Washington?
Right now it would be Trump.
quote:
5) What would be the bill of rights?
-- Pretty sure abortion would be banned
Yes
-- Pretty sure all immigration would be banned
No but stronger laws and a wall on our southern and western border would prevent a lot of illegal immigration.
-- Pretty sure all forms of weaponry would be allowed, automatics, bazookas, even armored vehicles and tanks.
Now that's just stupid talk no one wants any of that.
quote:
(6) What would happen to minorities?
Minorities would end up being better off than at any point in the history of man kind.
quote:
(7) What would be the souths relationship with the rest of the country?
Would end up going to war because of the left's terrible job of running what's left of the US. They would be extremely jealous of the the new country's success.
quote:
(8) Mexico would share a large border with the South. What would be Mexico's relationship with the new country. I suspect they will build a wall to keep the guns and militias out.
Would eventually be a great relationship, much better than what we have now. Mexico would prosper with trading with the new country.
quote:
(9) What would happen the nuclear facilities?
Will they go to the US or will the south become a nuclear power ( scary! ).
Yes but don't really care. Why would that be scary? The US would still have the war mongering left nutjobs.
quote:
(10) Would it be as prosperous like the US or would it more like a Latin American country in the lines of Argentina, Brazil, Chile
In 10 years the new country would be a world dominating economy and the old US would be on the edge of collapse.
We would have the farm land, timber, oil and gas, and a large portion of the food industry such as cattle, dairy, seafood, pork and poultry.
The very reason Argentina, Brazil and Chile are the way they are now is because of the very policies the left are pushing now. So if anyone ends up like these countries it would be what left of the US and the south leaves.

Texas and Florida are becoming the new financial centers of this country. California and New York let radicalism chase that away.
Wall Street is still alive and kicking for now but if you want to look at the banking capitol of the South it's clearly Charlotte and Houston and Atlanta are the Corporate hubs.

Simple answer to your wall of text.
We copy the Constitution.. word for word.. except we address anchor babies, immigration, and define the militia exactly as it was when the Declaration of Independence was drafted.
Boom. Then move on as it is now.

quote:

The exact one we have now, without the 17th and 26th Amendments
quote:
(5) What would be the bill of rights?
Perhaps, but would more likely just wrap the current BOR and the other amendments (minus 17 and 26) into the new body.
quote:
(6) What would happen to minorities?
-- Would minorities be granted citizenship
-- Would there be a mass exodus of minorities to the US.
Why is this even a question?
quote:
(7) What would be the souths relationship with the rest of the country?
At war and reoccupied within 10 years.
quote:
(9) What would happen the nuclear facilities?
The South would have to buy them, just like everything else fed gov owns.
quote:

It would be right back in the fold in no time, no reason to respond to this one.

No one wants to an immigration. Laws need to be enforced so it is done legally.

I know. Those guys were a bunch of disgusting traitors. It's hard to believe that there is to this day people who absolutely insist we keep standing, statutes that honor many of those Democrats. It's crazy that those Democrats still have such a fan club.

Logically Texas would be the wealthiest state, so Austin would be the capital.
Hell no to Austin we don’t need another liberal cesspool as capital.
Something central like Nashville or Atlanta would make more sense.

Bill of rights would be the current ones we have now. States rights on other issues.
Yes minorities would be equally treated but we would get rid of welfare. You live here you work. So yea some would probably leave

It should be somewhere central, with good transport. The Mississippi jumps to mind. Maybe carve-out a Federal District at or near Vicksburg?

Are you telling me that I need to cancel my planned visit to Fort Sumpter???
Posted on 3/3/21 at 2:56 pm to TotalPotato
My guess is if the south seceded that people like the OP would no longer be allowed here and we would be a hell of a lot better off

Would my old confederate $100 bill be worth anything?

Yep... it will be worth 100 "new" confederate dollars (with no adjustment for inflation.)
