"The south did NOT want a war. They wanted to leave the Union for legitimate reasons. The ONLY reason they lost is numbers. Too many union soldiers and Irish coming off the boat and drafted. And industry. North producing way too fast."

All of the above is an extreme simplification of the matter.

I bet you writing about the war would make me look like an idiot!! But it wouldn’t’ be the first time :)
