Yea. Crazy how the world really works.

For example, Andrew Jackson defeated the British in the greatest battle in the war of 1812. The problem was, he did it two weeks after the British had already surrendered. He didn't win the war, but everyone in the US thought he did.

It was the leading cause of him winning the presidency. Something that didn't really happen (it was a great battle victory however. Defeating the general that took down Napoleon and his army.)

That reminds me of the background history of the Team Fortress 2 Soldier:

Though he wanted desperately to fight in World War 2, the Soldier was rejected from every branch of the U.S. military. Undaunted, he bought his own ticket to Europe. After arriving and finally locating Poland, the Soldier taught himself how to load and fire a variety of weapons before embarking on a Nazi killing spree for which he was awarded several medals that he designed and made himself. His rampage ended immediately upon hearing about the end of the war in 1949.
