or was that Johnny Cash?

It was Johnny Cash

Johnny Horton died the year after Big Iron was released.

oof

Ooof

Johnny Horton's songs got me interested in History

His song about Jim Bridger was one of my favorites

history songs for me started with Sabaton

Not Animaniacs?

not really

That was a joke

I think they did more geography songs

whats gotton me onto history songs is stuff like ol confederate army songs

like Dixieland and The Yellow Rose of Texas

@Zilla listen to Boxcar Willie's version of Dixie

Aight

It is not necessarily historical but it is my favorite rendition

Does anybody got cool interesting facts about the civil war here?

It ended

More americans died in the civil war then the combined US casualties from ww1 and ww2 combined

Yeah I know that

hmm

um

Did you know that the sons of a Chinese Siamese twin served for the confederacy?

ooh

Huh I didn't know that

i believe that there was a good amount of immigrants fighting in the US at the time

There were

Pretty much everyone from all over the world were fighting for both sides

most of it was just because that were they ended up at the time

That's cool

And a lot of women were fighting in the civil war as well

Wifes

Alot of it was because the people knew that what happenes in the US would go to influence the entire world after, so they wanted to play their part for what that influence would be

Yeah I bet

If the South won, it would have inspired massive rebellions in places like Ireland and Italy

Yeah I know lol when America won during the revolutionary war it gave french people a hankering to rebel

And native americans fought in the civil war a lot of them on the Confederates side.

Mhm

The native americans and the confederacy pretty much allied because they had a common enemy

And the native americans would be the last to surrender almost a year after the war ended
