Interesting aside Abraham Lincoln, a Representative at the time, was outspokenly against the reasons for the war, he believed it was a blatant land grab and war by Polk to shore up support for an unpopular presidency. It is believed he lost his Rep seat because he was outspoken over the war.

José Antonio Páez, Battle of Las Queseras del Medio

I don't blame you guys, this battle is criminally underrated. There is absolutely fucking NOTHING on the internet about it, I was literally dumbfounded when I looked it up and figured out just how fucking underground that battle actually is, it deserves WAY more attention because it was fucking incredible.

I only know about it through Mike Duncan's Revolutions podcast when he covered Gran Colombia. Best series of the lot, in my opinion, followed closely by the English Civil War

Speaking of the English

>English and French are at war, part of French navy tries to escape the blockade
>They keep gaining on us, shit!
>Great, there's a storm coming, lets hide in this bay full of sheer cliffs, Anglos wont surely follows us there at this weather
>They do

>hey senpai what should we do with these 400,000 soldiers and civilians we captured
