Was watching the History channel last night, and the programme was about the English Civil War....
Did you know that more men died for this cause than all the people (combatants) in WWII???
Civil War sucks, I couldnt understand why a nation can turn on itself.

Guess our history discussions are just that. Not a single post in 2 years. It's a shame, I like discussing history.

Awesome, I didn't know that. Have you seen this show "Underground" yet? They go underground and dig up history of bomb shelter's and such. Saw it once and can't find it again, but it was awesome.
They did a special on Romania and its many salt mines and caves. It was sumthing else.
I'll think of a good topic here soon (or at least try to)
