Then why are you here?

Pings. I make a habit of answering people who write to me.

The union troops didn't invade another country. They invaded a portion of the union that was in a state of insurrection.

Just as did England, but for some reason they were the bad guys in that war. We asserted a natural right to independence or something, and they opposed that principle.

Yeah, the English were defending their “country.”

The south feels they had the right to declare the south their own country.

The north kicked their asses back to the stone age.

The north pretty much kicked the British out as well.

One the US soil, the north is pretty much like 5-0.

Therefore, the south found out they were NOT another country. Seems to me that Grant should have taken the horses and sidearms as well. Then the South might have figured out they were beaten.
