My father and I are under the suspicion that an ancestor of ours very well may have served in the Union Army during the US Civil War.
Has anyone here on /his/ had any luck with online databases regarding this? I know my ancestor's name, birth state, year, but for some reason all of the websites I've looked through never ask for the latter two, so it makes it possible to identify if it could be my ancestor or not. Anyone have any suggestions?

Finland is a true men country.
The only country that defeat the Soviet Union in a war.
GOD SAVE FINLAND!

getting ignored and later pushed aside isn't winning, buddy

>defeat the Soviet Union
No you didnt. You managed to force a stalemate because of your tactics but then Stalin wanted to focus on Nazi Germany, the true threat and thus, you were ignored.

Without the Lend-Lease, Britain and the USSR would have crumbled. There is no way either of them could have held out, we saved Britain from the brink of destruction. That is not why I made this thread though. The Lend-Lease started the American tradition of sending arms and supplies to other nations that need it, only to have it blow up in our face such as in South Vietnam, Afghanistan, Syria, etc. When should America stop arms dealing?
>>1691919
I think Lend-Lease has to be viewed in a vacuum compared to the contemporary military aid and support the USA has been engaged in post-ww2, I think Viet-nam and the Diem shitshow set the precedent for this kind of questionable arms dealing/regime assistance, which has almost always gone wrong
>>1691919
When should American Arms Stop dealing? They will when it doesn't benefit them.
Lend lease was a way to make money from the war and ensure that the European powers with mutual interests would not be overthown by the Germans and let them form an alliance with japan powerful enough to conquer the US.
Other times it has cause a divide and conquer situation, if you look at the acts of terrorism against the US, the damage done to the countries involved left them in un-unfied states and with less potential to harm America

I wish that during the Italian Unification's Capture of Rome, that the various leaders and military had simply rounded up the Pope and whatever clergymen remained in the 'Papal States' and had them shot, and as such, rid themselves of the tiresome pretense and useless formalities that governed dealings with the anachronism that was (is) the Pope and his delusions of grandeur.

What difference would that have made? The college of cardinals would just have convened somewhere else and elected a new pope.

Today, the political fragmentation of the European Union continued unabated, as Austrian Presidential hopeful, Norbert Hofer "expressed his wish to enlarge the Visegrád group with the adhesion of Austria."
It is striking that the nations of Central Europe, once so divided by petty quarrels, are now united against their adversaries. Are we witnessing a revival of the old empire? Is this going to at least be a geopolitical force to be reckoned with or will it disintegrate as quickly as it appeared?
Thoughts, opinions, commentary would be appreciated.

So what were Barbarians really like /his/?
>>1691433
I see Barbarians of old as how Commies are seen as today.
Simply the enemies of the main civilisations ideology.
They come from Harrogath.
>>1691433
In the sense of the late Roman Empire, they were basically indistinguishable from your average Roman hillbilly and citizen. Many of the Kings wanted to adopt and emulate Rome, and oftentimes the law codes of the "Barbarian" Kingdoms would have certain provisions based on Romans and Barbarians.
