Rebel Belles

American artifacts with the rebel flag are rarer in comparison to the flooding stars'n'stripes. Still, they are quite common in Rebel States. The rebel flag, shaped in a double-crossed bars and studded by stars, is of significant significance in American history and among many inlander WASPs. It is the battle-flag of the Confederate States of America. It is a attestment of human-animal nature within American themselves.

A great number of WASP Americans are crazy about this period of American history. There are books, novels, museums, collectibles, official celebrations, parades, with outrageous mimicry and fanfare. From pop history telling to acting called re-enactments.
