What were the main ideas of the confederate states of america

The Confederacy had two main ideas.

Separation of America:

The reason is that the Southern states and Northern states disagreed on a good bit of ideas. The Confederacy believed that the federal government over America was flawed and they would be better off on their own.

Spread of Slavery:

The south wanted to spread slavery to boost southern economy but the north wanted to spread industry and rid of the old system of slavery. This led to a difference of ideas the Democrats in the south disagreed and wanted to spread while the Republicans in the north wanted to spread industry.

both are true, the congress does have the power to create banks, even if this power is not specifically described in the constitution, since there is nothing restricting it and there is power given to the congress to make "all laws which shall be necessary and proper". maryland was not allowed to tax a branch of the national bank operating there, and the supreme court decided that no state could. both of these topics were discussed in a decision of the mcculloch v. maryland case in 1819.

wait history, who want to talk about history, boring.
