America's civil war lasted four years, from 1861 to 1865. The southern states seceded and formed the Confederacy, fighting for their independence, while the northern Union saw secession as an act of treason and fought to restore national solidarity. Northern victory reunited the states and abolished slavery.

Equines that go 'neigh' and tend to eat hay. Some are the stars of motion pictures. The truest of companions to many adventurers.

Murder is the act of ending the life of another living thing against its will without the sanction of a higher governmental authority, such as the casualties that result from acts of war. It is generally intentional, at least in a legal meaning, but not necessarily.

A lead character who never says a word, despite being spoken to.
The period in world history between 1800 and 1899. It saw some interesting events play out, including the Industrial Revolution, the height of British imperialism under Queen Victoria, the American Civil War and westward expansion, the Napoleonic Wars, and the end of Japan's feudal era, all of which have been depicted in video games.
Throwing weapons include knives, shurikens, axes, darts or even explosives such as grenades and molotov cocktails.
