Members of all the Confederate States military forces (the army, the navy, and the marine corps) are often referred to as Confederates, and members of the Confederate army were referred to as Confederate soldiers.

The Union was opposed by 11 Southern slave states that had declared a secession to join together to form the Confederate States of America. When the Civil War began in April 1861, there were only 16,000 men in the U.S. Army, and many of these were Southern officers who resigned to join the Confederate States Army. Though Lincoln thought the war would be brief, he was wrong, and on July 22, 1861, Congress authorized a volunteer army of 500,000 men.
