Also, this world is very low on reliable delivery vehicles yet. Options being explored are ships (i.e., harbor bombs), giant guns, and zeppelins; heavier-than-air craft and rockets capable of carrying the large devices they've developed are still mostly theoretical. |

Basically the heroes of the DCU show up in the 1830's. As in the standard DCU they are overwhelmingly in the North or California. That means that as the ACW starts up the North has the JLA and the JSA, among others, on call. Jefferson Davis seeks other allies.
Basically the North has the silver age DCU heroes (and any Marvel Heroes you love to much to leave out) and the South has the Silver age villains. Note: for fun you could look at comics from outside of the USA and send those heroes or villains into they fight. Given that Diabolik's politics always tended to be fashionable, Louis Napoleon might easily hire him to kill Lincoln and any Union heroes. Britain saw the North as hypocritical and favored Southern independence to increase British imperial influence in the Americas. The Crown might send Marvelman or Steed and Peel to keep the North in line.

Re: New Reality Seeds
Makes sense, if they come from a mid-century cosmologist point of view. They may believe that all outtime cultures change and may eventually become a risk -- even if they started as colonies from their own worldline. If the believe that there is a way to instantly destroy someone else, they may decide that the only way to survive is to pre-emptively destroy everything else.
