Half of those weren't even set in the US.
AC3 and Liberation were. Liberation even had a Mayan section would could make a cool game on its own if researched properly. But AC4 was Caribbean islands with Cuba and Jamaica being the main islands. Freedom Cry was a smaller Caribbean map centred on Haiti. And Rogue had New York but more time was spent in Newfoundland, east coast of Canada and the North Atlantic. North America centric sure, but not United States.
Regardless of setting, I wish they would go back to these smaller worlds in video games. Everything is so massive in world size now, I love this series but everything from Origins onwards burns me out!
Also not sure how well the US Civil War would work in Assassin's Creed, it would certainly be very different to the Western style shooters that used it as a setting. I vaguely remember the Call of Juarez series was partially based on the US Civil War.
