The South Rises

Because, as we all know, the dinosaurs turned the tides of war in the South's favor.



(This is an American Civil War reference, for those of my foreign readers who might not get it otherwise. The South, in actuality, lost.) (The South refers to the war as the "War of Northern Aggression" in a few spots.)

(Yes, everybody is aware that the war was more than 150 years ago)
