General William T. Sherman's March to the Sea is an example of "Total War", where everything the Union Army encountered along the way was burned, destroyed, or otherwise made unusable
The same way the US Civil War (American Civil War) wasn't technically a war. Neither were declared.
well, it really didn't. But, if you want to be technical, the North devoted all of it's resources to the war effort. It rationed everything.
no
how did the civil war affect the way you live in the united states today
that we are in the civil war that way that you have it is just more fancy lol :)
Walter Wigfall fought for the north in the civil war. He was a private and had to fake is way into the war because he was only 17. He lived with his widowed and and his brother.
no way dumbie
The South and North had tension way before the Civil War, but the Civil War started at Fort Sumter, South Carolina. That is where the opening shots were fired.
No need to "over-use" that "undeclared war..." term. If folks go by that term, people will begin to have troubles defining the American Civil War (aka US Civil War); for, much to the chagrin of Civil War buffs...the Civil War wasn't a declared war either. And by the way, the Civil War was officially called the "War of the Rebellion" (NOT the Civil War). One more note: there hasn't been a US declared war since WWII! So who won the Vietnam War? North Vietnam won the war!
There are many types of war, these include Total War, Guerilla War, Civil War above others. As WWI was the mother of all wars, it was recognised as total war, reason being because all the countries and its alliances and colonies were involved one way or another. For example, India did not take part in the war but 'she' supplied arms and weapons for Britain.
They didn't have anything to do with the Civil War. They were explorers. They were trying to find a water way all the way to the Pacific Ocean.
