>the CSA constitution was ironically anti-secession and restricted state's rights
The CSA constitution aldo writers refused to add a provision to the constitution allowing for a lawful and clearly enumerated right of secession lol.
>"Meanwhile, an even greater shocker rose to the floor of the Senate. On February 5 [1863], the Senate heard a proposed amendment to the Confederate Constitution that would allow an aggrieved state to secede from the Confederacy. "It shall do so in peace," read the proposal, "but shall be entitled to its pro rata share of property and be liable for its pro rata share of public debt to be determined by negotiation." The idea was referred to the Judicial Committee. Two days later senators failed to recommend the amendment, and the whole thing was dropped as a dangerous idea."
>Southern Historical Society Papers, 48: 60, 80."
The word "tariff" does not appear anywhere in the CSA constitution. "Tax" appears 6 times. It is made pointedly clear that taxes, duties etc. (tariffs basically) are to be set by Congress and uniform across all the States. Go figure, that's how it was before they left -- yknow, back when they (Democrats) were writing the US tariff code.
"Slave" appears 10 times. "Property" 6 times, 4 of which are in direct reference to slaves. Slavery literally gets more play in the CSA Constitution than fucking taxes, which for a founding document of a nation is just absolutely crazy. Like 98% of what a government is and does is taxing and spending taxes.

The American Constitution banned importation of slaves after 20 years. The CSA Constitution lifted this ban and even so Dixoids accuse the North of violating the States' Rights guaranteed by the Constitution which they themselves do not follow and adulterated.
