It cites the previous wars in the history of the United States. The book reveals those unbeknown stratagems in the open and secrets behind the century-old history of how the United States transformed from 13 colonies of British North American nations to the world * super power. Why did the manor owners in the North American continent oppose their own sovereign state? Was George Washington and his American Continental Army the mainstay or always "onlookers" during the War of Independence? Was George Washington really "exotic Yao and Shun", or had he also attempted to be an acclaimed emperor? What competitions and transactions were behind the U.S.-flaunted democracy? Behind the seemingly quiet history, the only real reason for the United States to become the Continental empire can be perceived only by reeling off raw silk from cocoons. How did the heads of state and elites of the United States succeed in expanding the territory from the narrow strip of land near the Atlantic Ocean to the east coast of the Pacific through a series of political and military games? How did the Indochina tribes that were mercilessly rolled by the Western civilization try to resist? Facing the neighbors of Mexico and Canada, had the U.S. government really never considered conquering them? What setbacks did the self-conceited powerful United States Navy and United States Army encounter in their underage era? Did the Civil War begin quietly before Lincoln became president? What sacrifices has the U.S. government made to safeguard national unification? What ordeals and pains did the U.S. military experienced in the process of destroying and rebuilding the South? Who was the ultimate winner of the Civil War on earth? In order to satisfy his own lust, how did Grant turn from a hero of the Civil War into an autocrat and traitor to the people? All answers can be revealed in this book.）
