War.

A dominant theme in American history is war. As a young country people would try to bully the American people and try to invade. So in that fact American people were very used to fighting and were always ready for war, wanted or not. Starting with the Revolutionary war and ending the time period we covered with the Civil War. Americans have been proved to fight for their independence, against revolts, second attacks, and even a split on the country. All these ended with war. The only way that was acceptable to end the disputes. While trying many other ideas and treaties to hold off, all would end up in the wages of war. Starting with the first war, The Revolutionary War, we fought for our independence and freedom from the monarchy of Great Britain. Ultimately defeating the British with help from the French Nation' and great tactics from many generals. Many people abandoned the British army for the American because they knew they had better lives. The next war was the war of 1812. The war was from the British trying to take back the land from us that we had fought and bled for. Ultimately again ending with the British defeat. The final war was the Civil War. This was was between the south and the north of the United States. The North winning because of all the troups, factories, and resources at their disposals. The south could not compete and ending up finally quitting and the United States was back in order.
