American Wars of the 20th/21st Centuries
 

I'm doing an assignment for Uni regarding American wars at the moment. I was wondering if someone could direct me to a site that has a list of such wars.

I need it to be a site, rather than just the info straight, since i have to reference it.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me dance:

i could just tell you


French and indian war

Revolutionary war

war of 1812

texas war for independance

mexican american war

civil war

spanish american war

world war one

world war two

Korea

Vietnam

Grenada

Desert Storm

Desert Storm II


thats all i know, there may be some even smaller conflicts that lasted short amounts of time and weren't talked about much in terms of world affairs.

You're doing every war from 1900-2100?

If you include that, then you gotta include all the other "little" conflicts....

Should include American interventions...could list a few hundred of them.

Thnaks for the info, Lads, it was a great help.

I'll be around here more once i get a better Internet connection. at the moment, It's taking the better part of a fortnight to load anything wallbash:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Barbary_War

wow, Philipine war was quite bloody indeed...

[quote:f9e74]CASUALTY FIGURES:

U.S.-- 4,234 dead and 2,818 wounded.

Philippines-- 20,000 military dead and 200,000 civilian dead. (approximate numbers). Some historians place the numbers of civilian dead at 500,000 or higher.



UNIQUE FACTS OR TRENDS:

1. This was the first major land campaign fought by the U.S. outside of the Western Hemisphere.

2. The Philippine-American War can be considered America's first "Imperialistic" conflict.[/quote:f9e74]
