also alot of the history was basically re-invented post war of 1812 so we really don't know the whole truth except thru oral history and archivists

2020-10-04 12:51:02 UTC  

alot of history is still buried for both north and south

2020-10-04 12:51:18 UTC  

Nah, its because of the destruction the North caused, plus they really fucked up with reconstruction 2 years into fixing everything

2020-10-04 12:54:27 UTC  

And also the North pretty much destroying the Souths entire economy that was already being put in shambles after the Tariff of Abominations

2020-10-04 12:54:34 UTC  

saw pics of the destruction ...seemed a bit excessive

2020-10-04 12:55:32 UTC  

the destruction in the north was no where near as excessive ...and even the south had naval support from other nations

2020-10-04 12:56:23 UTC  

or so we thought ...history is flakey on that part

2020-10-04 12:57:21 UTC  

The South barely got anywhere into Northern territory so any destruction was very minimal in the North. And Britian and France held some support for the South, but didnt do much beyond selling weapons to us as they couldnt do any actual combat due to the threat of Russia

2020-10-04 12:57:43 UTC  

looking thru some england's naval historical archives a few months ago, apparently england's navy post war of 1812 went on rampage to wipe out the slave trade in the atlantic til post civil war

2020-10-04 12:58:43 UTC  

which seemed very odd according to most of usa's history

2020-10-04 12:58:53 UTC  

for that time period

2020-10-04 12:59:00 UTC  

Funny enough tho, Canada showed support for the Union, despite being a puppet country to Britian who showed support for the South

2020-10-04 12:59:10 UTC  

well most of the 'official' history

2020-10-04 12:59:45 UTC  

ya...history is strange when things don't add up to a global picture of events

2020-10-04 13:00:22 UTC  

wait til u discover there was multiple wars around the world going on around 1812, not just in usa

2020-10-04 13:00:24 UTC  

Also the biggest reason why Britian showed support for the South was because of the cotton trade, and a massive cotton shortage in both Britian and France due to the Union blockade

2020-10-04 13:00:53 UTC  

cotton and food resources ...south had alot of crops

2020-10-04 13:00:59 UTC  

Yep

2020-10-04 13:01:08 UTC  

Tho it was primarily for cotton

2020-10-04 13:01:20 UTC  

well it was a cash crop

2020-10-04 13:01:36 UTC  

One of the biggest right next to Tabaco

2020-10-04 13:02:04 UTC  

which i'm smoking right now ..tobacco

2020-10-04 13:03:38 UTC  

still digging up hidden history of the 1800's ...mostly concentrating around 1812 era

2020-10-04 13:04:11 UTC  

something happen world wide to bury most of it between 1810-1811

2020-10-04 13:04:37 UTC  

1812 worldwide seemed to be a resources war

2020-10-04 13:05:26 UTC  

Yeah, a major conflict in the Pacific between France Britian and Russia, and as well as over in Europe between Prussian states, England, France, and Russia

2020-10-04 13:05:54 UTC  

look further ...it's world wide

2020-10-04 13:06:14 UTC  

not just western europe

2020-10-04 13:06:21 UTC  

or eastern usa

2020-10-04 13:06:39 UTC  

Well I did mention conflict in the pacific

2020-10-04 13:07:02 UTC  

eastern europe, southern europe, asia, africa

2020-10-04 13:07:10 UTC  

even some areas of middle east

2020-10-04 13:07:15 UTC  

It was essentially a unofficial world war that was going on

2020-10-04 13:07:47 UTC  

well internet opened up a world of histories buried under dogma

2020-10-04 13:09:11 UTC  

Mhm

2020-10-04 13:10:32 UTC  

At one point i think it also pretty much became a battle royal, at least in Asia Pacific

2020-10-04 13:10:43 UTC  

hell theres even a town in mexico that got buried mostly under lava by a volcano eruption in the 50's, the mexican gov for decades kept saying the town never existed yet every survivor of that town said it did, only a church steeple remained above ground til a decade ago

2020-10-04 13:11:25 UTC  

dogma buries more history than natural events do

2020-10-04 13:12:10 UTC  

Mhm

2020-10-04 13:13:12 UTC  

early historical maps say pompeii existed up til late 1700's ...yet they didn't officially discover it til few decades ago according few decades ago
