Best Answer

'Confederate' usually refers to the armies of the Confederacy, and is used to designate both officers and rank-&-file.

The Southern states were also designated the Confederate States of America.

Loyal civilians would normally be referred-to as 'Confederate sympathisers' rather than Confederates.
