This is the first episode over the Civil War in the American Southwest.
This episode covers the initial rift in the new United States of America between Democrats and Federalists and their diplomatic desires to be closer to either France or England. It also covers the question of slavery among the Founding Fathers, England’s constant meddling in the US, the War of 1812, Napoleon Bonaparte and his commanders’ influence on the new Republic, and John C Calhoun.
This is the first of three introductory episodes before the Civil War actually begins.
