History Lesson: The Civil War

Today I am going to teach you uneducated bastards about the Civil War of the United States of America. As I'm sure you know, the United States was split in twain, with the Union States of the North fighting against the Confederate States of the South. While the main reason behind the war cited is the fight over slavery, there were several other factors in play as well, and in fact in many cases slavery could be considered just an excuse to get a good fight in.
The war began in 1861, and while there were numerous combats up until then, the war came upon a decisive change in 1863, when a group of paleontologists discovered a lost valley of the dinosaurs in Virginia. The Union forces harnessed the power of these primeval beasts and used them as their secret weapon against the South, a move that proved disastrous, as nobody is truly capable of controlling a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Instead, I found this thread to be full of fact and perfection.
i was all ready to talk about Colonel Angus too
Colonel Angus also was a promoter for Dicken's Cider.
He always said no woman should go to bed without a hot Dicken's Cider, and he was right.
He's sneaky!
She's a...

I don't usually actually laugh out loud at things people post, but this got me.

this is my second favorite musical
I don't see anything in the synopsis contradicting what I said.
After Booth shot Lincoln there was a scene change and Booth sang an inspiring song about why he killed Lincoln while the Balladeer sung on about how he inspired a history of violence.

They proved perhaps less effective during Hitler's lebensraum expansion, with the Polish 2nd mounted dino brigade being decimated in the face of advancing German armour, hopelessly outdated for the the rigours of modern warfare.
I'm kinda disappointed that you guys were not assured of my history prowess
It is my major
Mostly English and European history, but still
For with this knowledge, I will bring my own dinosaur army to life, and with it I will rule the galaxy!
My plan is infallible!
I will have enslaved all of you by this time.
just sayin' man
Upon reflection, no matter how much land I conquer, losing a series of appendages training an army of elite raptor commandoes still leaves me short.
I'd best stop while I'm ahead.
BLAMTOWN
People will be prepared to deal with dinosaur commandos after Jurassic Park IV comes out anyway.
I must know.
