That was an excellent educational video.
It was hard to read the casualties. A bar graph or something similar, something more visual would have more sense.
Thanks for posting that.

How exactly do you see that going down? I’ve read many theories, which do you think is most likely?

There are so many possibilities the mind boggles. I think we can pretty much rule out a bunch of people running around shooting small arms at on another, but whether it would go biological or high tech artillery or air power or what I couldn't predict.
I will point out that the CDC released the genetic map for the flu virus of 1918 a few years ago - which would be absolutely insane unless they have evidence that someone they can't trace already has it.
Fortunately my health is to frail to be likely to survive it, so I hope to die before it happens or in the early stages when the power knocks out my air conditioning and I get heat exhaustion.
Whatever happens, God is in control, and he will not be mocked.

Every school in this country should have this amazing map. And, truly, this is a great country to have survived a civil war and to still be united.

That was exceptional.
Kudos to the creator.

Very nice presentation. As somebody who tries to study Tennessee history, I noticed that Tennessee’s secession was dated May 1861 when the politicians illegally took the state out of the Union instead of the June rubber stamp election. But I suppose that in a military sense the video was correct. How many lives would have been saved and how shorter the war would have been had the pro-slavery Tennessee politicians not been so anxious to join the Confederacy?
