National symbols of the Confederate States of America
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is a list of national symbols of the Confederate States of America enacted through legislation. Upon its independence (adoption of the Constitution for the Provisional Government of the Confederate States) on February 8, 1861,[1] and subsequent foundation of the permanent government on February 22, 1862,[2] the Confederate States Congress adopted national symbols distinct from those of the United States.
