The Confederates were never intending to annex the rest of the country, they just wanted to break off. At most, they would've taken border states and territories like Kentucky or New Mexico.

But yeah, they would've certainly been highly tied to Britain and France because of their cash crops.

They would have also had to abolish slavery some time after they gained independence, due to the fact France and Britian were very anti-slavery.
