Occupied Nation


On 3 April 1865 the invading Union army occupied the Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia. That makes us the largest occupied nation in the world today, and the longest occupied & denied the right of self-determination. I reckon that's okay for Czecho-Slovakia, Yugoslavia, and all those really big countries like Bosnia & Kosovo, but not for the South. Go unravel that, if you can.
