Parthenon revised


Called the Athens of The South and built for the 1897 Tennessee Centennial celebrating Tennessees first 100 years of statehood, on land previously used as a staging area for soldiers as a rally point in both The War of 1812 and The Civil War. The Parthenon pays tribute to Athena, daughter of Zeus and hailed as the goddess of wisdom. Inside the temple which is scaled to the size of the original temple in Athens, it houses the largest indoor sculpture in Western Civilization. Athena stands at 42 ft and is holding Nike in her palm who is the goddesses of victory. Victory cant be achieved without the preservation of the givers of life…the matriarch. The Parthenon allows sons and daughters of the west to see ideal, classical architecture. It shows us what our ancestors truly cared about, which was the wealth of wisdom. The original architect was William Crawford Smith who was a CSA(Confederate States Army) veteran as well as a Knight Templar.

@Jesse NC Very good! Will review soon!

First draft for the William H. Harrison topic:


Three months into The War of 1812 the American nation faced a crisis in the northwest territory. With Fort Detroit captured and American forces on the backfoot, someone with experience in military as well as diplomatic affairs needed to be appointed to commander of the Army of the Northwest. William H. Harrison was a national hero from his victory against an ambush at Tippecanoe by the Indian leader Tecumseh, and he was a renowned statesman with numerous land acquisition treaties during his career. Immediately after his appointment, he established Fort Meigs in northwest Ohio to plug the gap created early in the war until he could receive enough reinforcements to mitigate the numerical superiority of the British and Indian forces.

A year after his appointment, Commander Harrison had reversed the tide of the war in the northwest; his army was on the offensive. After recapturing Fort Detroit his army chased Tecumseh’s Indians along with their British allies into Ontario. At the Battle of the Thames the Indian army dissipated along with the British forces after Tecumseh was slain. This campaign and its penultimate conclusion at the Battle of the Thames became one of the greatest American victories in the war of 1812 and earned future president William H. Harrison a gold medal for his service to his country.

@Jesse NC I made some edits that I think improve the text. Feel free to implement them, or if you disagree with them let me know :)

It also may be good to shoehorn Columbia in as the American Nations "Mother/Matriarch" figure, but I felt that would be too dramatic of a change to the piece to throw in without discussion

Looks great

I'll get to these very soon.
