The War of 1812 Full Program | The War of 1812 | PBS Video

I finished watching it tonight. It left me unsatisfied, but the the war left the combatants unsatisfied as well.

No. But I guess that I had some answers to that question about why the North American Indians got practically extinct when the Africans have survived :

It seems to me that one of the reasons was the unsuitability of North American Natives for slave labor and the other the high susceptibility to European diseases.

It seems that while in Africa it was the Europeans that died most when exposed to the Natives, in America it was the other way around. It seems that about 50% of the Native Americans died just for being exposed to European diseases, small pots being one of the most deadly.

But thanks, I would have liked to see that ABC program

Regards

Paulo
