Why are there more Confederation monuments than other war memorials and Union monuments in the Georgia and the South? Where in Georgia are the memorials for the American Revolutionary War, War of 1812, Trail of Tears, Indian Wars, Spanish American War, World War I, World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War, and Gulf Wars? Despite what others want you to believe Stone Mountain was not a Civil War battlefield or skirmish. The most visited Civil War battlefield in the US is Kennesaw Mountain. Kennesaw Mountain is located 20 miles north of Atlanta in Cobb County Georgia, There is a Civil War museum located at Kennesaw Mountain park and is also designated as a national park. The most significant Civil War battle occurred at Kennesaw Mountain, not Stone Mountain. The Confederate monuments belong at Kennesaw Mountain if they belong anywhere. Georgia was not the capital of the Confederacy. None of the men in the Stone Mountain carving were from Georgia, There was no battle at Stone Mountain, and there is no one buried at Stone Mountain Park. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kennesaw_Mountain Did You Know ?? There would likely not have been a Civil War had it not been for the Haitian revolution. The French needed money because of the Haitian revolution. In large part, it was because of the Haitian Revolution from 1791 to 1803, that the South was able to expand into the Louisiana territory when President Thomas Jefferson was able to purchase the Louisiana Territory from France on the cheap because the French needed money to pay for the war against the Haitian colony in the Caribbean. Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri would not have been part of the Confederacy in 1861. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haitian_Revolution
