12 abr 1861 ano - Jefferson Davis

Descrição:

Jefferson Davis was the President of the Confederacy, and was previously a Democratic Senator from Mississippi. He struggled to sustain the Southern war effort while establishing the Confederate economy from scratch and keeping the states united in the Confederacy (states rights ironically became a problem again). Often seen as contentious by his fellow Confederates, Davis failed in the end to win the war, and was captured soon after the Confederate surrender.
