The War That Almost Started Over A Dead Pig ⚔️🐷 #usarmy #british #history #pigAñadido:
In 1859, two of the most powerful countries on Earth went to war because of a single dead pig. You see, a single dead pig had just put 2,600 soldiers [music] and five warships on a collision course. For 3 months, neither side fired a single shot. The standoff lasted 12 years [music] until Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany was called in to settle it. America won the island and the only casualty in 12 years was the pig.
