In the history of the United States, there has only been one time when more than one government ruled territory.

When southern states seceded in 1861, they formed what would become the Confederate States of America, and for the next four years, there were two governments on the continent — one in Washington, D.C., and one in Richmond, Va.

The Union’s successful prosecution of the war reunited the country, and while there have since been calls here and there for a new secessionist movement, none have been so blatant — and so treasonous — as the one called for by an MSNBC host.
