Many of these are wars the United States were in because I don't know of many others. Sawee.
I go for WWII. I just like it more.

The Trojan War sounded cool, at least as described in the Iliad.

What about the Boxer Revolution? Or the Spanish-American War? Or the Mexican-American War? Or the Battle of Tripoly? Or the War of 1812? Or the Banana Republic War? Or the other 2 Crusades? You should of had an other option in the poll. Plus how can you have a favorite war? There is nothing to admire or favor from a war.

Magneto is a fictional character from a fictional series. War is war, people died in wars, many innocents too. The Vietnam, Korea, WWI, WWII and the Crusades were nothing but a massacre of innocent lives. plus all of those wars started out of some stupid reason.

Fictional war is more dangeous than you'd think.

I've always been a facinated by the United States Civil War. I plan someday going to a few of the sites, and trying to get some EVP's. Though Twitch thinks my EVP's sound like some kids sitting around and eating corn chips.

No real one, so i'll go with the one in my head.
And when you say favourite war, do you mean you are entertained by such carnage? Just curious here.

The Crusades, all of them, hold the most interest for me. Or the Bosnian one, where they beseiged Bosnia.

You should of had an other option in the poll. Plus how can you have a favorite war? There is nothing to admire or favor from a war. Boxer Rebellion? Rebellion, not war... Spanish-American War? More of an  rape than a war Mexican-American? Might as well lump it in with the Civil War, it was the same officers anyways... Tripoly? 'Battle of' 1812? Ummm... Quiet You... Banana Republic War? Secret CIA operations aren't wars. Other 2 Crusades? There were a lot more than 3 Crusades... What about the 1st Gulf War, our violent Oppression of the Philippines, or the War against the Native Americans in the West? |

We sent troops that fired their arms, and the chinese fired back, that's a war.

This is rather an odd question... obviously, no one should actually LIKE any war. But most wars can be incredibly interesting when being totally objective in looking at the politics involved/changes caused/technology used, etc. Both World Wars, the Civil War, Vietnam/Korea... they can all be fascinating to study.

It was an extermination, genocide. A war would be an appropriate title if they had actually stood a chance. The oppression of the Phillipines is no worse than the oppression of Okinawa, either. Well maybe a little worse, with the Manila riots and whatever. But you get the idea. Both are pretty bad |

What about the 1st Gulf War, our violent Oppression of the Philippines, or the War against the Native Americans in the West? Ok, by that logic korea, vietnam, the manila riots, and gulf war were all not wars, they were, infact, conflicts. Just because congress does not declare war does not mean there was one. Oh, my personal favorite was the mexican american war. Illigal amreican immgarants to mexico and the "attack" on america troops made it a rather ironic war. |

The Mexican-American war interests me the most. I spent months studying it and writing a large paper on it..
Damn school.
