Hudson would have needed to been defended if the British(or confederates) managed to get that far.
Itโs a strategic point
Iโd place a cannon there
~~actually a shitload of cannons~~
I remember reading something bout the confederates trying to get the British and the rest of Europe to intervene
They did but failed
England and the rest of Europe just simply switched to buying from Egypt
yeah, because the deal they had with the CSA was if you can break through the blockade we can further assist you in your campaign, however this wouldnt happen as the Union by then had the superior naval force even when Ironclads cropped up first with the CSA
we found it
someone in the gun chat said its a 8in Rodman naval cannon used in coastal forts from 1860s to 70s
Whoa that's a thicc boi
Indeed
Nice

I answered four strokes, he had the same question in #guns, your pic there is I think a 15in Rodman which is a Smoothbore cannon.
In pic of the muzzle shows maker marks...Its Mfg by Scott Foundry of Seyfert, McManus & Co in Reading, Pennsylvania

Here is a bit of history that is still being played out in some areas to the present day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OdIqeWkhHU
How do we undo literal centuries of living under autocratic rule. ^ thatโs the problem with bringing democracy to China
Emperor>warlord>republic(real brief)>Empire again(cause Japan)>Communism
Yes
Many cultures adopted slavery
