THANK YOU!!

CIA's spontaneous revolt idea was nonsense even if FC was unpopular. In war it's guns, not feelings that count. During bay of pigs (but not during the missile crisis), a real invasion was not declared casus belli by the USSR to start WWIII, but overall JFK had better used the carrot and stick approach. It's an example of USA wanting to have a cheap buy and fouling it up as a result, whichever way you look at it. No money for Cuba, hence FC wins. No real invasion to get FC, hence the fiasko.

ty for posting!

Shite, see for me that whole era is jumbled around, haven't put events happening in the Americas in relation to that happening in Europe. As far as i know the out and out losers were the native Americans but ultimately it seemed to end up as a stalemate.

@HauptmannRob Wrong war - that was the war of independence in 1775.

Could you explain please? I'll be the first to admit my knowledge of the war of 1812 isn't brilliant but wasn't the ultimate result of the war the independance of the United States from Great Britian?

@Jonmad17 Actually that isn't so - they didn't win anything the war was draw at the very best but most serious historians outside of the US would tell you it was a loss.
