Some folks talk about the Battle of Cowpens over in North Carolina being the reason that the US exists in its present form.


The southern theater is overlooked all the time when discussing this war. I know Washington wasn’t there and whatnot but damn, the southern war was so important and so brutal in comparison with the northern theater.

Cornwallis ended up at Yorktown because of what happened in the south.

It was beautiful how the British plan of moving through the South rather easily and picking up loyalist support along the way backfired. Morgan, Marion, and other Patriot volunteers wore them down and drove them into their own trap at Yorktown.
