19:30 I am not sure that the central latitudes people are 'bad fighters' as much as they have shitty military cohesion. And the South is no different in that, from any other culture in those latitudes. Northern people by nature are cooperative, a society in the North cannot survive without working together to get through the hard times. Warm weather people rarely have to face the possibility of deadly winters and selfishness and shortsightedness is the norm. The U.S. military requires the South to provide soldiers, not intellect or military cohesion. Southerners are by their very nature/nurture resistant to cooperative combat. The South lost to the North for various reasons, ability of the individual fighter/solider was not among them. The reason the Confederacy lost is because every ass in the South thought he was the best at leading an army. The generals and every State of the Confederacy were out for themselves (hyperbole,) at the expense of their neighbors. Very much a representation of the Medieval attitude and the attitude of all central latitude populations. While the North was the epitome or Cohesive Imperialism. The Confederacy was a failed nation state from its inception because it depended on the States NOT being selfish. And every State in the Confederacy was a selfish cunt. So the Army of Northern Virginia was never going to be able to lead more troops from the other 'States' as they would never give up their sovereignty even temporarily or raise taxes to equip a better army. Going against a unified cohesive Union army, they simply did not stand a chance.
