Granted this is already in "soft AH that'd be a lot better for a story than claimed as plausible" territory, but I'm wondering just how out-there a sort of "Walkerist" pro-CSA rump state named after this guy in Central America enduring some time after the Union victory in the real ACW would be.
The plot justification would be that the Union Navy's shrinking back postwar gave it less ability to intervene combined with the Walkerist state as a whole being little comparative threat. The question remains if such a thing, even if propped up by plot, would be anything other than a weak state focused entirely on survival.
