I thought this was a good quote so I'm just going to leave it here:

"Any understanding of this nation has to be based, and I mean really based, on an understanding of the Civil War. I believe that firmly. It defined us. The Revolution did what it did. Our involvement in European wars, beginning with the First World War, did what it did. But the Civil War defined us as what we are and it opened us to being what we became, good and bad things. And it is very necessary, if you are going to understand the American character in the twentieth century, to learn about this enormous catastrophe of the mid-nineteenth century. It was the crossroads of our being, and it was a hell of a crossroads." - Shelby Foote

Edit: This is us trying to hack into Hinkel's computer to steal 1.0:

Ok. The revolution should not be dismissed like that. The revolution was the first congregation of our people.

True, it set the foundation for our country, but that wasn't the main point of the quote.

I saw this quote today so I will just leave it here for you yanks

“To tar the sacrifices of the Confederate soldier as simple acts of racism, and reduce the battle flag under which he fought to nothing more than the symbol of a racist heritage, is one of the great blasphemies of our modern age”.
~ James Webb-Secretary of Navy And Assistant Secretary of Defense under U.S. President Ronald Reagan

History is written by the victors, nothing to do about that. That just shows what you learn at school XD
  Union jack should be just red with gallows and a torch in the middle.

^ that shows on a couple of later occasions the natives being the aggressors. Still, us white man has treated the local population of most country we landed in like animals. Spain and Portugal in South America, Britain and the Opium wars and Dutch and the ethnic cleansing of Banda Island being some.

Its right what you say but "couple of later occasions the natives being the aggressors" bs.
Just making a point that there was not one good and one bad side in the war.

We, the spaniards, love the parties and the sex, so our forefathers killed the mans to have sex and party with the womens. North Americans killed all the natives so no party and no sex, worst people in all the world.

ps. I was joking. You must come at least one time in your live to our parties in Spain.

For those who haven't watched it yet... its a pretty well done animation, about the final days of the civil war and the "cost" of the war:

Beside that, today.. 150 years ago, nearly on the same time, Lee surrendered at Appomatox...
