It's a good start, but we've done a lot more than what they've outlined :)

My opinion: violence is endemic to the history of mankind and its society, and there is no escaping it.

That being said, it is a facinating chronology of the wars and skirmishes that US denizens have managed to embroil themselves in over the years.

Whoever created it did a great job.

I noticed there is no information about the slaughter of the Indians. Seems more than a bit incomplete to me. I also don't feel that it conveys the sheer brutality involved in many of these conflicts.

That's history.

They should create one for France and every other nation in the world.
