Let's talk about some history

The biggest civil war in the United States, in which a people's hero, Lincoln, was created. On the surface, this war was for equal rights, for the liberation of slaves in the South, but in fact it was more because of economic problems. At that time The main economies of the southern United States are the cotton industry and slavery. If slavery is abolished, the original slaves must be paid according to labor wages, resulting in a lot of costs, enough to cause the collapse of the economy.

When we are discussing strategy, we will pay attention to the movements and choices of the enemy. No matter what choice the enemy takes, we must be prepared and not bet victory on the choice of the other side, and international bankers are deeply secretive about this. Therefore, in the Civil War, they used extremely ingenious methods to finance both sides of the war. Perhaps the phrase "children make choices, I want them all" is a truth that is too correct.

At that time, during the Civil War, the south had the support of European powers. President Lincoln thought of the old enemy of the European monarchs, the Russian Tsar Alexander II, so in 1863 Russia sent troops to support the north. At the same time, the battle at Antietam also made the original Britain and France, which recognized the sovereignty of the South, hesitated, giving President Lincoln time to turn things around. The war ended in 1865 when the Southern forces encircled Virginia and forced General Rob Lee to surrender, led by Northern general Grant.

President Lincoln, who was supposed to lift the "National Bank Act", was assassinated shortly after the war. The National Bank Act was a policy signed by President Lincoln in 1863 to ease monetary tightening. It gave the National Bank the right to issue currency. , but the national bank is based on US bonds as reserves, so currency issuance and government debt are deadlocked, which means that the miracle of 0 national debt in 1835 will never be realized. Perhaps this event was the greatest impact of the Civil War on the United States, and even the world.
