So taking the American Revolution as example then, the Colonial powers wanted to invade GB? I guess they didn't get around to it. LOL! You really are an ignorant fool in a lot of ways.

The basic war aim of the Confederacy, like that of the United States in the Revolution, was to defend a new nation from conquest. Confederates looked for inspiration to the heroes of 1776, who had triumphed over greater odds than southerners faced in 1861.

Ok you dunderhead try to learn something.

The day a moron like you could teach me anything would be a sad day indeed. The South went to war to preserve slavery and lost everything. The North went to war to preserve the Union and won. Tell me something General, if the South had won the war would it have abolished slavery?
