It was the end of southern domination of the American political system.
Is it fair to say Virginia’s dominance of the American political system? Granted, it takes two to tango but Virginia was in the driver’s seat for many decades leading up to and following ratification of the Constitution.
The war was absolutely about slavery. The sad thing is most of the people who died didn’t have a hole to piss in. A rich man’s war fought by poor men.
