Alabama

From Turtledove

Alabama is a state located in the Southern United States. It is bordered by Tennessee to the north, Georgia to the east, Florida and the Gulf of Mexico to the south, and Mississippi to the west. The twenty-second state admitted to the Union, Alabama seceded from the union in 1861 to become part of the Confederate States of America.

Alabama's Sloss Steel Foundry was important to Confederacy's efforts during the Great War.

After the C.S. lost the Great War, Alabama became a firmly Freedom state. During the Second Great War, Alabama was again an industrial center key to the C.S. war effort, specifically Birmingham and Huntsville. After Georgia fell to United States General Irving Morrell, his advance turned to Alabama. Huntsville fell in mid 1944. C.S. General George Patton had hoped to make Birmingham his last stand, but instead realized the futility of such an action and surrendered.

Armstrong Grimes was stationed in Alabama after the war. The Peace Bowl was held in Alabama.
