re CSA map edit
The map is purely from the POV of the CSA - mentioning any change in West Virginia's status wouldn't work. This is purely "What did the CSA claim?", not "did they have any power over the region." I can't really do the latter since it requires detail that doesn't really work for these maps, they're purely political/legal maps, what the country claimed at a particular moment and who else claimed it. And since the US's claim over Virginia/West Virginia didn't change at any point, there'd be no change to this map at that point. Thanks for liking it, and thank you very much for feedback. :) More detail is found at the Wikipedia article, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_evolution_of_the_Confederate_States. --Golbez (talk) 16:55, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
