Etymology
The area comprising Copperhead under the original Allegheny Confederacy was formerly known as Southern Cumberland until the [Insert War] began in 1914. Following Copperhead's declaration of independence from the Allegheny Confederacy at the beginning of the war, the 1st Assembly of Copperhead voted to name the newly formed nation after its most prominent landmark, the Copperhead River. The river itself takes its name from the copperhead snake of which large numbers are found within the nation as well as resembling the river's winding appearance. The snake was also thought to represent the fighting spirit of the people of Copperhead in defense of their land, homes, and beliefs, striking from tall grass and delivering a venomous blow before fading away once again.
