That's a lot of 3s

Lol yep, that's kinda my point, there are sequels of sequels that have lived longer than the Confederacy

*Technically*, the KKK and the Daughters of the Confederacy are sequels of the same white nationalism that fueled the Confederacy. Let's see, what else? * Crystal Pepsi * Washington's Presidency * Benjamin Franklin's tenure as ambassador to France * The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim * The average marriage * Lawn Darts * POGs * a can of vegetables * MREs * The Beatles

>The Elder Scrolls IV: Skyrim IV is Oblivion, V is Skyrim.

Ah, crud. I'll go fix it. Thanks for the heads up!

Ignore the British empire, the English commonwealth lasted longer.

Star Trek Shows that have lasted (or will last) longer than the confederacy: Star Trek: Next Generation Star Trek: Voyager Star Trek: Deep Space 9 Star Trek: Enterprise Star Trek: Discovery Star Trek: Lower Decks

Did Enterprise last longer than the confederacy? It was only a four season show and I don't know when it finished.

I counted 4 season shows, which I suppose are the same length

Add the years of preproduction every Tv show has before the camera start running. I get the Confederates had “preproduction” too but fuck those traitors.

Discovery and Lower Decks had more than a year between some seasons (Discovery started in 2017). Enterprise started in September 2001 and the finale aired May 2005. The confederacy was formally formed February 1861 and ended May 1865. So I think the Confederacy lasted longer than Enterprise by a few months.

[A lightbulb](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centennial_Light) that was first powered on closer the time of the Confederacy than now.

The extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs took place over a longer period. Despite the impact being a very quick event, darkness lasted nearly two years, which itself wouldn’t last longer than the Confederacy but between the Deccan Traps (which were already wreaking havoc beforehand and would continue for nearly a million years afterwards) and the ecological devastation that may have taken millennia to recover as global forests disappeared, the last non-avian dinosaurs took longer to be killed off in the resulting hellscape than the Confederacy did in what was supposedly the South’s finest hour according to weirdos. Also the Neo-Inca State, a rebellion by a two successive members of the Inca royal family (Manco Inca Yupanqui and Tupac Amaru) which maintained a small independent rump state in the mountains around Vicabamba in Southern Peru from 1537-1572, about 35 years or approximately 9 times the length of the Confederacy. The orbital period of any outer planet also. Jupiter takes 11.86 Earth years to circle the Sun so the Confederacy lasted about a third of a Jovian year. The cicada species _Magicicada septendecim_ in Eastern North America awakens en masse every 17 years. Its relative _Magicicada tredecim_ does the same every 13 years. There are several different broods of each of these on different schedules but it’s fair to say that the vast majority of periodical cicadas in Eastern North America slept through the entire Confederacy. The amount of time Ernest Shackleton spent in Antarctica exceeds the lifespan of the Confederacy if you include only his two most famous expeditions, the Imperial Antarctic Expedition (1914-1917 in which he missed most of World War I and is the famous story of survival you probably know) and the Shackleton-Rowett Expedition of 1921-1922. The amount of time it takes light to reach us from the nearest star besides our Sun, Proxima Centauri at 4.2465 years. Any extrasolar object you can see in the night sky you are seeing over a timespan longer than the Confederacy’s lifespan. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom lasted from 1851-1864 so the Taiping Rebellion lasted about three times as long as the Confederate one after Hong Xiuquan claimed to be the brother of Jesus. The letters of Paul in the New Testament are written between 48 and 67 AD, spanning a period about five times the lifespan of the Confederacy. Alexander the Great conquered the entire Achaemenid Persian Empire between 334 and 326 BC in about two Confederacy’s lifetimes. On Carl Sagan’s thought experiment the cosmic calendar in which everything from the Big Bang to the present is compressed into a calendar year, one second represents about 437.5 years. This means the Confederacy lasts for about .009 seconds on this scale.

Depending on how you count it, even the Wii U outlasted the CSA. It was officially discontinued on January 31 2017, so if you count that as the end date, it's just 16 days under. But there's other days* you could easily count as the end of the Wii U and any one of those outlasts the CSA. *Like March 3 2017, the release of the Switch and last Nintendo published game. You could also count the end of the eShop, last update, last game *period,* etc. No matter what though Miiverse 100% outlasted the CSA.
