Why didn't the US civil war create a series of civil wars afterwards?
1 thing I have noticed is that many civil wars lead to a 2nd civil war between the victors.
Examples include Roman civil wars after Caesar's death.
English Civil War
Russian revolution caused a 2nd revolution in the same year. Or civil war and kronstadt rebellion.
Libiyan civil war,
Yet the US civil war didn't cause a fight between the victorious side, only a low level insurrectionby the KKK and other such groups. I think it was because of how unified each side was and how the conflict had concrete state boundaries.
What are your thoughts on how the US got lucky?
