History - March 2007

He was born of a rich and privileged family. His father was also a prominent politician, his mother was an eccentric and well-loved figure. Unlike his predecessor he had a stable marriage. His children however attracted scandal and caused him embarrassment. He did poorly at school. Many people considered him a buffoon and a warmonger. He was accused of racism. Against the advice of many in his government he dragged his country into a war. He used suspect intelligence and outright propaganda to justify going to war against a dangerous tyrant, spurning suggestions to continue a dialogue or seek a diplomatic solution. The war dragged on a long time, costing the country dearly in blood and money. He was voted out of office before the war ended.

Was King Xerxes all hairless? I have seen a monument of his and it looks like he's got lots of hair with that long beard he has.

When the flag represented a different way of life and it was not owning slaves. I don't even want to hear that one. Do your research and you may find out what the south wanted. So I wanted to know any other reasons, why.

They obviously didn't have their liberty, so were much worse off in that respect, but otherwise wasn't that a time when the poor, slave or freeman, had hard, short and brutal lives.
