Slavery would've end by the turn of the century (at the absolute latest) regardless. Especially if the war had been won in 1863 or 1864 after the extraordinary carnage and destruction of the war had irrecoverably affected Southern society or if the Confederacy had adopted Cleburne's proposal of emancipating slaves in exchange for military service earlier and had managed to turn the tide. Cleburne himself remarked in his writings that his proposal for arming slaves would effectively be the end of slavery, but that it was still preferable to Northern subjugation.

The very act of secession and going to war basically shot the institution of slavery in the foot with a .69 Caliber Buck n' Ball musket. Even in the best of circumstances, the South would've been left with a less than friendly neighbor who would be willing to either finance slave revolts to destabilize the country or at the very least be accepting of escaped slaves, an army that wasn't sufficient in size to put down the next John Brown wannabe, and a poor white population that would have been increasingly unwilling to do the bidding of the Planter class.

Slaves weren't stupid, they would have realized that meant the end of the Confederacy was near and would have either been the shittiest fighters ever or just revolted after being armed and crossed into Union lines.

From a quick search, the Soviets backed the Nigerian loyalists as part of a shared opposition to internal secessionist movements.

>the shittiest fighters ever

Well it worked during the American Revolution for both sides during the American Revolution. In fact, ex-slaves proved to be some of the most motivated fighters in both the British and American Armies.

>they would have realized that meant the end of the Confederacy was near

The very problem with Cleburne's plan was that it wasn't seriously considered until the final year of the war, long after it was too late. Cleburne didn't even make the proposal public until January 2, 1864 (although he had been dwelling on it for months by that point). If he had proposed it and it had been adopted a year earlier, before the full ramifications of the Emancipation Proclamation took hold, it might've worked.

>just revolted after being armed and crossed into Union lines

You're right that desertion among slave soldiers would have been a serious flaw with Cleburne's plan. As early as late 1861, slaves were already fleeing into Union-held territory in large numbers (where Union forces held them as "contraband") or taking over plantations after their masters fled. That was in fact, the primary reason why Richmond did not take it seriously until 1865.

>The British planned to maintain and expand their supply of cheap high-quality oil from Nigeria. Therefore they placed a high priority on maintenance of oil extraction and refining operations. They backed the Federal Government, but when the war broke out cautioned them not to damage British oil installations in the East. These oilworks, under the control of Shell-BP Petroleum Development Company (jointly owned by Shell and British Petroleum), controlled 84% of Nigeria's 580,000 barrels per day. Two-thirds of this oil came from the Eastern region, and another third from the newly created Mid-West region. Two-fifths of all Nigerian oil ended up in Britain.

False. I mean,Madrid is probably the highest expression of Castillian culture and is the most important city in Spain. Things like San Isidro or Callos and gallinejas are very Castillian. And I am not getting into smaller provinces like Avila,Burgos or Valladolid that still preserve the culture. Andalusian culture is just dominant for advertisement. Outside of Andalucia,very few people are interested in flamenco and such

Yes, doesn't mean it's Castillian. People here don't even know anything about Castillian folklore.
>Madrid is probably the highest expression of Castillian culture
When I refer to culture, I refer to old folklore. Yes, Madrid is the most "Castillian" thing, but because this city made its own culture since 1600. If you go around Madrid asking it the city is "Castillian" you'll get surprised looks.
I'd know, I'm Madrilean seeing my city completely stripped from its Castillian heritage.
