| @badassbab Forget the American civil war did you? The war over slavery in the 1860's? Not only that people fought each other in the wild west too |
No I didn't forget, there was a follow on post. Saying the US grew rich in the 19th century is vague, kind of like saying the Chinese economy got big during the 20th century. Post civil war is when the US economy really took off. Also lets not forget, as bad as the Civil War was it did help initiate the heavy industrialisation of the Union controlled parts.
