      As the meme notes, there’s a lot of overlap. May they both be relegated to the same dust heap of history.

      That’s the joke. But the confederacy lasted five?

      Edit: SC seceded in Dec 1860 and the war ended by April 1865 so, closer to four for both the war and the confederacy

        Four. 1861-1865.

          South Carolina did secede in late 1860, which is why I was thinking five for the confederacy, but yeah, 4 years
