america has no history lmao, i have beer brewery in my country older than the whole new world

you had bunch of euro undesirables, low iq debt cattle, religious fanatics etc getting shipped out of europe (origins of american degree mill debt cattle of today)
there they rebelled against paying taxes
after creating their bandit state, they cause bandit trouble to everyone around them, indians, spanish empire, each other, etc (origins of american gun unculture, rabid hyenas have more tact, grace and culture)
from here, they wait for the russians to take berlin before they even participate in any world wars
this is where the jews come in, take the gold out of money, monopolize the banks, politics, the media, ethnic cohesion, etc
america proceeds from here to do the most massacres of civilian population since 1945, have more prisoners than china and north korea and russia while calling them authoritarian, promote open borders on everyone except israel, promote race mixing for everyone except israel, arm cartels and terrorists such as taliban and isis and whatnot while preaching human rights, gets 9/11'd, declare a bunch of wars on random words (war on terror, war on poverty, war on drugs etc), loses all these wars, loses to vietnam, loses to afghanistan, fails to provide basic healthcare to its citizens because military aid to israel comes first

there you go, bunch of bandits turned into braindead jewish shock troops

Browsing this website will teach you about the American. You will learn to adapt and expose his crimes. You will learn there is no such thing as a "good" American. Americans are pure evil.

how did americans win ww2 when they didnt even join until soviets took berlin? 10 out of 10 biggest ww2 battles happened on the eastern front
if jewish hollywood wasnt in charge of your education, if those movies were realistic, you would have a bunch of american negroes murdering 15 year old hitler youth or disabled/wounded/retired 60 years old volksturm because all the elite wehrmacht and ss divisions were spent on the eastern front

americans never won a war on their own, they needed a 50 country coalition to wreck libya and iraq because israel felt threatened
meanwhile american space force got kicked out of afghanistan by barefoot taliban

then you have war on terror which americans fought by sending cia to arm all the terrorists in the world
then you have war on drugs where cia arms and trains all cartels
then you have war on poverty where military aid to israel impoverishes average american so much that you cant even put him in the first world category anymore

>america has no history lmao
You just summarized a bunch of our history, so that's not true. We also invented the atom bomb, are the only nation to have used it in war, the only nation to have gone to the moon, and the greatest world power in history after 40 years of arguably somewhat sharing it with the USSR. I don't disagree with basically anything you said but you can't deny that we are the biggest force of the 20th and 21st centuries politically, for better or worse. That's some history.

What was your stupid country writing in the year 800? Is 800 really all that far off from 1492? The US as a modern country is far older than whatever hell hole you’re from, you literally cannot get older than 1776 unless you pretend England had a constitution in the 17th c. I dare you to go in the street and say something critical of your government.

Co. Aytch by Sam Watkins, a memoir by a Confederate soldier who enlisted in 1861 and was one of a handful of his survivors in his regiment four years later. He’s not a Dixietard lost causer but gives a vivid sense both of camp life, marching and the horrific battles he survived. His book is considered one of the best memoirs ever by a private soldier and his narrative voice was used a lot in the Ken Burns Civil War series. For some perspective from the other side in some of the same battles, Grant’s memoirs. His clear concise prose influenced many American writers including Hemingway.
