    Question Were there any third parties of the ACW?

    I remember long ago, when I was lurking on the forums, there was a guy who made a joke thread about adding a third faction of soldiers called "The Elites", which was basically a bunch of LARPers with Star Wars gear. However, this got me thinking. Were there any third-parties in the ACW?

    Like, I know of the Union and the Confederacy, as well as some Native American resistance, but was there a third organized party of soldiers? And if so, what were their political motivations and history?

    The closest you'll come to third parties would be those of the bushwhackers/guerrillas operating in the borderstates I'd say.

    Didn't die English support the confederacy or does that not count as a third party.

    Would 'Knight's Company' count here as they were not Confederates or part of the Union officially?
