The purpose of reassessing the War of Secession is to debunk the anti-Christian 'might makes right' axiom or the Prussian 'war is an extension of politics' for the millions of indoctrinated disciples of government schools and government history books.


By demystifying/destigmatizing the cause of the South, we see secession as a cure for what ails us, so that our off-spring might know the ideal of liberty and provide the institutions that can be passed down to our heirs.

However, Could two separate Nations have staved off the Depredations of the European continent.....?

Louisiana might have started looking good to France....Texas to Mexico...etc...

The South lacking a real industrial base, would have been appetizing looking prey...
