You need to focus on Liverpool in England which was the defacto home of the Confederate fleet. Forgotten in the USA. Many vids can be made from this. During the American civil war, Liverpool was the unofficial home of the Confederate fleet. Three significant acts of the war involved Liverpool: The first act of the war - the first shot of the civil war was fired by a cannon made in Lydia Anne Street. The very last act of the war - Captain Waddell of the CCS Shenandoah walking up the steps of Liverpool Town Hall surrendering his vessel to the Lord Mayor, after sailing 'home' from Alaska to surrender. The last shot fired in the conflict was by CSS Shenandoah on 22 June 1865 at a Northern Union whaling ship in the North Pacific Ocean. The last official lowering of the Confederate flag - Was on CSS Shenandoah on the River Mersey at Liverpool overseen by the Royal Navy. https://localwiki.org/liverpool/Liverpool_-_The_Home_of_the_Confederate_Fleet
