No, they sadly do not. They are not epic.
After General John Bell Hood abandoned Atlanta, he moved
the Confederate Army of Tennessee outside the city to recuperate from
the previous campaign. In early October he began a raid toward
Chattanooga, Tennessee, in an effort to draw Sherman back over ground
the two sides had fought for since May. But instead of tempting Sherman
to battle, Hood turned his army west and marched into Alabama,
abandoning Georgia to Union forces. Apparently, Hood hoped that if he
invaded Tennessee, Sherman would be forced to follow. Sherman, however,
had anticipated this strategy and had sent Major General George H.
Thomas to Nashville to deal with Hood. With Georgia cleared of the
Confederate army, Sherman, facing only scattered cavalry, was free to
move south.

Reconstruction was a direct effect of the civil war, as the majority of the battles took place in the South, the had much to reconstruct. Eleven cities were seriously damaged and destroyed. These cities housed over 100,000 people. Therefore, the Southern States were in a deep economic ruin.
- Violence broke out in areas as many opposed the legislations that were being passed by the federal government.
The<u> Ku Kux Klan (KKK)</u> flourished in the Southern United States at the end of the war in 1865. It was a secret movement that sought to overthrow the Republican state government, using terrorism against individuals they opposed, such as inmigrants. For example, the government passed the abolition of slavery during the Recontruction era, and, as this didn't make them happy, they used violence against people to oppress government.
- A longing for the "Old South" existed for many who continued to live there.
The South also developed a nostalgic culture that described the antebellum world (which means before war) including slavery, the Confederacy as well as Southern Courage during Civil War.
