Weapons And Technique Used During The American Civil War

The American Civil War was probably the most important period of arms development in history. The Civil War was appropriately called "the last of the ancient wars and first of the modern wars”. This was because many revolutionary breakthroughs occurred in this war, yet the military still relied on some of its old weapons and techniques. In this report, I will elaborate on some of the guns and ammunition used during the civil wars. I feel that the weapons are the most important part of a war.
Weapons are the key element of war. They can determine who wins or loses. When it comes down to it, wars do not depend on the quality of fighting, they depend on the development of arms. Whoever develops the most advanced weapons will most likely be successful.
