      This was a war on tyranny, it helped our country grow to be the best nation in the world, we corrected our mistakes but also gave power to the gov, a republic is based on individual rights and states governing independent but united.

    Interesting Fact. The commanding Confederate General at the battle of Vicksburg was John C. Pemberton. He was NOT a southerner, but instead was a northerner from Pennsylvania who decided to fight for the South during the American Civil War. He surrendered his Confederate army to US General Ulysses S. Grant on July 4, 1863, which was US Independence Day. Later when asked why he surrendered on that day he was heard saying " I am a northern man. I knew my people. I knew I could get better terms from them on that day than any other day of the year. " Remarkable story of this Confederate Civil War General.

    U.S. Grant was one of the greatest, if unsung, generals in history. He knew the ground, his men, his resources, where they were situated and where they needed to be, with almost preternatural clarity. He could glance at a map and see entire engagements unfold before a single regiment was placed or deployed. He saw what others, especially his adversaries, did not or could not, like a skilled chess player many moves ahead of his opponent. And he had the audacity of decision, knowing that indecision would doom an army as readily as anything else. It’s as if all his life he was built for commanding armies and shrewd strategizing, and without the titanic struggle of war those talents likely never would have awakened.

      Pope was a raging dick whole basically called him men losers and went on to get his ass kicked at Manassas.
      Mac failed to capitalize on the orders he found, even as they unfolded in front of him. He was a dick, too.
      Burnside was a political officer chosen because a vocal faction didn't like Joe Hooker. He refused the advice of Hancock and several other officers about where to cross the Rappahannock and lost at Fredericksburg.
      Joe Hooker lost his nerve at Chacellorsville.
      Meade won at Gettysburg but failed to follow up because his men were exhausted and it was raining buckets. He surmised the river would be too hight to cross, taking the wrong bet.

    It ended up being good though. He was sent to Indiana where he was paroled. All he had to do was swear he wouldn’t go South again until the war was over. If they caught him trying they would have hanged him. So he stayed and worked in Indiana the rest of the war and married a local girl there.

      Not as many, but there. And...the southern economy relied on it.

      The agreement, that the South had entered.....was becoming oppressive......
      Think on it. If you enter an agreement as an EQUAL.....but then the other side gets more power...and UNILATERALLY starts changing the terms......that is oppressive.

      Nobody's whole economy relies on a single thing. Most average and poor southerners felt the much larger federal government was imposing ANY law upon the Southern states that the federal government had no right to impose. The individual states acting as a group literally created the Federal government and chose to "join" said union with the understanding that they could leave "the union of states" at any time for any reason they saw fit. The Southern politicians documented that reason as slavery. The people themselves decided to fight for many reasons which may have included being able to continue their livelihood that sometimes involved the labor of slaves they didn't own, but also and more prevelantly was documented as what they felt was federal tyranny. This is widely known.
      Everyone knows the Victor writes the history.
      And the statement "rooted in slavery" is an obvious Left-Wing Extremist trope. The only things that were rooted in slavery were the slave trade itself.. and the Democrat party.

      he was a surrendered soldier, he might as well lie down on the ground and go to sleep. He still had some respect for his own officers (who were also shown courtesy by Grant) so he stood. Look at the man, he is haggard, malnourished and defeated. Neither the Confederate or Union officers would bother correcting him- that's just in your headcanon

    In most of our Wars we have fought because of principle not because of hatred. The soldiers taking bread out of their haversack to give to the enemy who they work so hard to starve in the first place is because there is no more reason to starve them. In most American soldiers look at the enemy and realize that could be me.

    Amazing how the union won Gettysburg July 3rd and Vicksburg surrendered the next day on July 4th. Fun fact the city of Vicksburg didn't celebrate the Fourth of July for 81 years after that. Worth a Google if you want.

      @DominionSorcerer Před 3 měsíci +1

      Well, the Confederate general we see in the movie here was actually a Northerner who said he surrendered on the 4th of July because he knew his countrymen and expected to get the best possible terms from them if he surrendered on that day.

So I don't think I would change my editing skills based of one guy, perhaps some improvement. But my newer clips changed a bit, if you want to view and comment on those ones about their editing appearance I would consider using a different style. Thanks for the comment!

My comment was a genuine question worrying if the professional hired to do real work had done the poor job in post or if you had in an attempt to show the characters better with your limited skills. The majority of people dont look at that kind of stuff, youre right, and if you are proud of your efforts to make things look "better" because you would honestly be copyright striked quicker if you didnt, then far be it for me or anyone else to sway you in either direction.
