They myths about a war are written by the losing side.
Lies about any war are written by those who won it. The winners are usually the ones who have more men and never run out of men to fight it. When the South lost a soldier no one replaced him. The union didn’t have that problem. Fresh recruits landed in NY and Boston harbors. The minute these immigrants set foot on land they were in the Army. The first two years of the war, when the Lee’s Army was outnumbered 3-1, making it a somewhat even fight, the Southern Forces regularly beat the hell out the union forces. By the 3rd and 4th year when the ratio was 10-1 the Union gained control. The South had the best officers and the best enlisted forces. All the Southerners grew up living off the land and all knew how to handle a weapon. The only thing they didn’t have was an unlimited number of men to fight, so they lost. You need men to fight wars.
Most of the time they are written by the winning side, and then taught as history, you know, like in the United States where most people think the war was fought over slavery.
Of course you don't think this, because you've said so many times.
