    Yes they lost the civil war. We know this because the CSA does not exist any more. I think that losing your entire country and failing to achieve any strategic objectives is a pretty good definition of “lost a war.” The fact that traditions of racism still existed in the southern states during reconstruction does not mean that the CSA won. That’s silly.
