3 Minute History of American Warfare

Maps Of War has a brief animated list of the various wars that the United States of America has been involved in. It zooms to areas of conflict on a map, shows the number of American deaths from that war, and then attributes those deaths to the political party that was in charge at the time the war began. At the end, you can compare which political party was responsible for leading us into conflicts that resulted in the most American deaths.
