The Battle of Baltimore is one of my favorite battles of the War of 1812. I got to visit Fort McHenry last winter and it was something to stand there on the ramparts (although they look a little different since they were modified during the Civil War and then again in WWI) and look out and try to imagine the British ships and being fired on for 25 hours... I'm very happy with how this story turned out. :)
Feels! So much feels~! I haven't delved deeper into American history- since well- I didn't get a chance to over all the other things, but this is really awesome~ New lesson learned, yay!
Over all that, the story is amazing. Your choice of words is good, and the feels- FEEELSSS > u < KEEP IT GOING ARUU~
This was awesome!! I loved how worked in more history into what is a historical setting. And the bitterness that England feels about it was heart-wrenching. And poor clueless America just wants him to be happy for him, it's almost like getting an anthem is a rite of passage for the countries. *LOVED it*
I find the War of 1812 really interesting and I always think of this quote (this isn't gonna be exact, but I think this is how it went, "It was a hot, unnatural war between kindred nations." I think that would describe the way they feel about it.
And getting a national anthem would be pretty special I think. ;)
