Something to consider about going to war with people you have been..."allies with"?
The Civil War.......Yes, I have read some articles, but the war is very distant.Imagine what it was like to fight a war within our own country...THE CIVIL WAR...NORTH VS SOUTH
Yes...160 years ago, in 1860 in the U.S., there was such a war. And it was awful beyond description.
Yes...Some pictures, many stories, a great speech, and more. You need to read some horrific
stories about that war. Some movies, none recent. Horrific beyond anything this country has ever faced.
I taught U.S. History in high school many years ago. Hard to recreate the feeling of a country fighting
within itself.
