My country has had a civil war, invasions by the french, by the spanish, more recently a revolution that threw a fascist government, followed by a very colourful period of internal squirmishes between anti-regime forces, but we settled those events and that was that: off to the history books.
What motivates so many people to re-enact battles from the American Civil War?
It sounds cruel. Re-enacting a war where so many died gruesome deaths.
Also in Canada, didn’t know Vikings were popular to the point it beats WWII.
Hoping it’s actually Nordic immigrants or people interested in Norse mythology doing it and it isn’t the people obsessed with the blond hair blue eyes thing using vikings as a dog whistle?
At least with WWII it’s Canada fighting the Nazis.
