Course we burned canadas down in retaliationOriginally posted by gribbler View PostWhat was the long-term significance of the war to the US?

It is sometimes called the Second American Revolution. British were still in forts that were technically in US territory and were impressing US sailors into the Royal Navy. That stopped after the war.Originally posted by gribbler View PostWhat was the long-term significance of the war to the US?

Which forts did the British have on American soil when the US declared war? Also, impressment stopped before the war ended when France made peace with Britain, not after the war. It was never even mentioned in the peace treaty.Originally posted by Imran Siddiqui View PostIt is sometimes called the Second American Revolution.

There were plenty of reports of the Brits not abandoning there forts in the Ohio Valley. That's how they were able to push Indian raids. And there is no reason to engage in impressment when there is no conflict in which to impress sailors (just because the war with France ended doesn't mean there would be no navel warfare in the future involving the UK). And no grievances that began the war were mentioned in the Treaty of Ghent.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

I'm sure there were a lot sympathetic to the Nazis, but plenty of people who volunteer to the armed services--especially when the country goes to war--do so out of patriotism, not politics. Remember Pat Tillman? I don't see why that wouldn't be true for Germans as it has been for everyone.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View PostUntil absurdly massive conscription took place, I think it would be fair to say that most were at least a bit sympathetic to Nazism.
My point is that simply because a dude was wearing a German uniform in WW2 didn't mean he was a genocide-loving evil racist bastard.Tutto nel mondo è burla
