The Hunger War: The Moment The Confederacy Lost The War

Описание: The Hunger War: The Moment The Confederacy Lost The War

December 1863. Confederate soldiers sit by dying fires with empty plates. No food is coming. Again.

This is the untold story of how systematic starvation defeated the Confederacy. While Union soldiers ate regularly, Confederate armies went days without rations. Men collapsed from hunger during battles. Soldiers deserted because they were literally starving to death.

The Civil War's most decisive weapon wasn't bullets or strategy—it was hunger. This video reveals how the Union's overwhelming advantage in food production and supply logistics slowly crushed Confederate armies through starvation, and identifies the exact moment when the South's food crisis became irreversible.

400,000 Confederate soldiers died from the effects of malnutrition and starvation—more than all the famous battles combined. This is how hunger lost the war.
