But I can tell you: We will not give up that easily! Politically, they now hope to win formal recognition from Britain and France, because the european textile industry depended on the trade with the South. The Confederacy’s strategy is to preserve the small armies and that they do enough damage to erode the Union’s will to fight. On the strategic side, it was easier for them, because they only needed to defend their land and not conquer the land of their enemy like us, which was a great advantage for them.

They also had an excellent military commander, Robert E. The advantages of the Confederacy are mostly psychological: They have a better reason to fight: They are fighting for survival and want to stay independent for every price. Unlike the Confederacy, we have an established government and Lincoln’s leadership, which helps us a lot (he is a great man). Our navy also blocked the southern trade, which was part of a plan that I will explain later. Also, we have a larger railroad network to transport them. Since the North is industrialized, we (yes, I can call the North WE! finally I belong there too!) can produce more ammunition, medicine and railroads for the soldiers. The advantage of the Union are that their population is 22 millions vs. Both the Union and the Confederacy have advantages and disadvantages. I also wanted to tell you about the Civil War, which is going on for a while now.

The only thing I know is that they are going to be raised in an antislavery state, hopefully, and they are going to contribute to the humanity by having my beliefs of anti-slavery.

Do you want to know why? It’s because I’m pregnant!! Yes, I am finally pregnant! First, I thought I was just getting fat because of the stress I had that caused me to eat a lot, but now I see a big big belly on my body, which clearly indicates that I will have a child soon! I don’t know whether it will be a boy or a girl, but it doesn’t matter to me. Anyways, we have a nice little home here, that isn’t in the center of fighting and where I can rest. Originally, we planned to move to an antislavery state, but we lacked the money to travel so far. I wanted to inform you that my husband and I moved to Washington, D.C. Hello folks! Today I have a relatively short post for you.
