The Union

This was the official name of the North during the American Civil War. The soldiers were identified with blue uniforms, and different trim colors according to which ever branch of the army they belonged to. i.e. Cavalry=Yellow and Dark Blue; Artillery=Red and Dark Blue.
The Union consisted of 34 states: Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Wisconsin, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas, California, Nevada, Oregon, and others.
After four years of brutal, off and on fighting, as well as the invasion of Northern States (Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania), the determined and enduring stance of the Union finally prevailed, and the South was defeated.
The Union was able to destroy and thoroughly shut out the southern Confederacy.

Fork Union Military Academy

A school in the middle on fucking no where and dip is the drug. It teaches you how to live with gays and how to be the best dick sucker. One important skill that is taught is how to masturbate without waking up your roommate. You learn to get around everything in life and how to hide fairly large items on your bod, cough cough.. there are too many ignorant niggers and weird ass white kids. takes away you freedom, social life and childhood memories and replaces them with images of naked guys staring at the bar of soap you just dropped on the shower floor. You learn to make a necklace that holds your soap after that terrifying experience. no bitches just a bunch of horny guys trying to organize a circle jerk. its a wonderful school :).

North American Union

The North American Union is the event that will make thousands of American, Canadians and Mexicans shit their pants to the point of no return.

It will make Mexico, The US and Canada into one giant country, with one currency called the Amero and open borders allowing all citizens of the three countries to travel, live and work freely in either land. Very much like the European Union. Some ignorant people think of this North American Union as a myth, but then again, the European Union was a ¨myth¨ too and see what happened?.
¨The North American Union sure made things alot easier for the goverment to know everything about its citizens! Did you get your RFID chip implanted in your arm yet? I did along with my National ID and a 10 Ameros cuppon to buy food at Mexicamericanada Mart! ROFL¨
