A lot of the southerners were conscripted via Militia membership

True I'd not have intervened either

Yeah and they were veterans of the Mexican war

All of them.

Mexican war was 40 years later

Wait were they not fighting the Mexicans a year ago.

You're correct

mexican war was a couple decades previous

This whole shooting is too funny

The whole script has been flipped

Looking back, a LOT of our military engagements were illegal and stupid in hindsight

spanish-american war was total bs tho

it was the original WMDs

THAT'S what I was thinking of

Yeah but I would not certainly say the civil war was stupid

@ᚴᚬᚾᛁᚾᚴ ᚱᚢᚦᚴᚨᚱ (Hrothgar) Look at how close we were to industrialization

Slavery would have fell out of style within a decade or two anyways

Sure but the question of an unified federal government's power needed to be asserted in the then Yankee mindset.

True.

@ᚴᚬᚾᛁᚾᚴ ᚱᚢᚦᚴᚨᚱ (Hrothgar) There wasn't a unified govt at that time

But it still would not have made the federal government this big son of a bitch.

Wait there were not a federal government in the north?

The federal govt didn't operate the same prior to the Civil War

Exactly and it started being this guy with big dick just after it innit?

Now that the nation is unified.

The conquest of the west would be so much smoother.

Right. It used to be, that technically any state could leave, but lose their benefits

Yup after the war its either you are an Unionist or you are a traitor.

The North literally said that the Dixies are traitors in official documents did they not?

Only after the false flag attack that kicked off the war

Ah.

How do ya feel about Robert Lee?

I know nothing about him

Dodge Chargers aren't too bad.

That's sad.

The extant of my history is all about the Oregon Territory and the Hudson Bay Co.

All I know is he was in Assassin's Creed 3.

I have immense respect for Robert E. Lee despite his stating that it is the God recommended relationship between the white race and the black race to be master and slave for the benefit of both races.
