  Fighting After the War: A...

  There are countless examples of battles that take place in wars after a peace treaty is signed. The last battle of the Civil War was a skirmish in Texas that Confederate forces won, nearly a month after Lee’s surrender at Appomattox. As fate would have it, the last fighting of the Civil War took place two days after Confederate President Jefferson Davis had been captured in Georgia 
  It’s certainly rare for the most famous battle of a war to take place after the peace treaty is signed, but luckily for Andrew Jackson, the War of 1812 was that unique exception. Less than a year after his victory in the Battle of Horseshoe Creek, Jackson led his forces into a more important battle at the Battle of New Orleans. The British hoped to grab as much of the land on the western frontier as they could, especially New Orleans, which had a prominent position on the Mississippi River for trading. With more than 8,000 soldiers aboard a British fleet sailing in from Jamaica in early January 1815, the attack on New Orleans promised to be a significant one, while Jackson’s men defended New Orleans with about half that number. This went on despite the fact that the two sides had signed the Treaty of Ghent on Christmas Eve 1814, which was supposed to end the war.  
  Despite the fact the French & Indian War had recently concluded, Pontiac led the first major attack of Pontiac’s War in May 1763, when he and 300 of his men attacked Fort Detroit in what is now the city by the same name. Unfortunately for his cause, Pontiac failed to gauge just how strong the British presence there was, and his attack was quickly repelled. On the other hand, he was not a man who gave up easily, so instead of retreating, he and his warriors would lay siege to the British stronghold. In the days that followed, word spread of his efforts, and in short order nearly 1,000 men from various tribes in the area had joined him.

  This is a combo in which you will find three different topics, namely: 
    
  Topic 1: The Mayans have lived in Central America for centuries, but many people are confused as to when and where, and what they did. In this guide, you’ll find answers to all your basic questions about the Maya people: 
    
  Their religion, human sacrifice, habits, wars, conflicts, culture, art, the roles of women in their society, merchants, science, the collapse of their empire, the attack of the Spanish conquistadores, and the main temple ruins that you can still visit as tourists today. 
    
    
  Topic 2: Many accounts of the Aztecs are about brutal, raw civilizations that were constantly at war in the jungle or were offering human lives to the sun god. And even though, there is truth in all of this, many interesting facts about the Aztec civilization (or lack thereof) have been forgotten or put in the background. 
    
  Today, you can learn more about the Aztecs and the issues they were confronted with. You will see that some parts of this society were indeed harsh and merciless, but that others were sophisticated, artistic, practical, and generous. The two seem to contradict each other, which is why it’s so intriguing to study them. 
    
    
  Topic 3: The Inca people were known for their gold and chocolate. Other aspects may have been revealed in movies, such as the human sacrifice, the ball games, the slavery, and the extensive road network they built. 
    
  The Incas were a controversial yet intricate people. They spread their empire all across Peru and some surrounding countries, they had their conflicts, their prisoners, their artwork, their family structure, and much more.

  The Gilded Age was a period in American history that covered the late 19th century, from the 1870s till around 1900. The Gilded Age was a period of great financial development in the United States, specifically in the North and West. The time saw an increase of countless European immigrants as American incomes were considerably higher than those in Europe, specifically for experienced workers, while industrialization demanded an ever-increasing common labor force. 
  Between 1860 and 1890, the quick growth of market led to a sixty percent boost in real salaries, which was dispersed over an ever-increasing manpower. The typical annual wage for a commercial worker (consisting of men, women, and kids) increased by 48 percent from $380 in 1880 to $564 in 1890. On the other hand, the Gilded Age was also a time of severe poverty and inequality, as countless immigrants-- many from poor parts-- gathered to the United States, bringing with them a high concentration of wealth that ended up being more obvious and controversial.
