We will also delve into the relationship between Pope Pius IX and the Confederacy, and the Vatican's stance on the Civil War. The Papacy played a complex and nuanced role during the American Civil War, balancing its sympathies for the Confederacy with concerns about the impact of the conflict on Catholic interests in the United States.
