I believe it would be Republican party influence in that region.
The republican party held more tendency to display patriotical value that shown through sacrifice in battle field.
According to poll, more than 2/3 of the soldier that enlisted to the army are affiliated tot he Republican party.
<span>In the context of styles of followership, a dependent, uncritical thinker does not consider possibilities beyond what he or she is told.
This type of a thinker just accepts the ideas that a leader presents to them, without actually stopping to think about them or evaluate their value. This thinker will just blindly follow their orders, regardless of the fact whether they will have a good or a bad outcome.

To create large tombs for important leaders...I hope this helps!!! Thank you!!!
