In fact, I will say this about the Lost Cause Myth
If anything, we've only just begun to course-correct the damage done by the Lost Cause Myth, as people are starting to finally be re-taught the real reasons behind the Civil War's build-up and cause.

So there was actually a good reason for why the US territory was divided up into separate states if you're interested.

It has a lot to do with the fact that daughters and wives of Confederate soldiers and leaders had to make ends meet by being teachers. Ergo, pretty simple explanation. Confederates rewrote their history so as to maintain their political power against a new crop of political rivals

So TL/DR: The reason multiple states existed was to please the smaller states like Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Maryland who had no land claims out West. Should they have allowed states like Virginia and Pennsylvania rights to those plots of land, their influence would have overwhelmed the smaller states just by their sheer size. It was a compromise to make sure that all things were equal in this new union.

And now you understand why Lincoln dying and Andrew Johnson becoming President was the worst thing to happen to this country. Probably even worse than Andrew Jackson betraying the natives of Southern America.
