You seem to think I am attacking you when you gloss over a painful part of the past by your specific choice of words. Had you said "the land the Southeastern tribes had been forced from" that would have been it. I never would have expected the whole story of the Trail of Tears.
Suppose the American Civil War had ended in 1861, it almost did. The first Bull Run or first Manassas was only 30 miles from Washington DC. It could have been taken if they pushed on.
We are not discussing what could have happened, you linked the demise of pirates, navel propulsion and weapons technological development internationally to a mostly land war within one nation.
While I do see the technological discrepancy from North and South as a factor in that war, I do not see the factors you brought up as having anything to do with it.
Please explain it to me.

Does anyone know the minimum safe distance of ignorance?
