Answer 3

President: Jefferson Davis

State: The Confederate States of America

Answer 4

You are referring to the "Confederate States of America" also known as the Confederacy.

I wouldn't necessarily call the southern states during the civil war a "country". It was never recognized by any other nations, therefore by international law and custom, it was never really an independent country.

According to the Confederate Constitution a president would be elected every six years (and could never be re-elected). The confederate president was Jefferson Davis, from 1861-1865.
