Well, it's more because you had to know Latin to get ahead in life in the Roman Empire, among other things, so many people learned Latin and stopped using their own native language, and certain areas progressively forgot their own language after a few centuries that way. So in a way, it has more to do with soft power than anything else. In other words, the Romans didn't really force things, but they certainly didn't complain when the peoples they conquered became more and more Roman with the centuries. At least, that's how I understand it.
They didn't actively prevent people from speaking their language, it's just that knowing Latin was essential to conducting business with people from other parts of the empire, making it profitable to be bi- or tri-lingual.
@@shaetteb1272 The Germanic tribes also ended up migrating and living INSIDE the Roman Empire (and not necessarily as invaders, contrary to common belief), and then as the Empire declined, they were the ones to form new kingdoms, and they still spoke their own Germanic languages (demonstrated by the fact many words of Germanic origin ended up in Romance languages). But even though they became the dominant class on the ruins of the empire, they still ended up eventually choosing to speak Latin, or at least what Latin had become (i.e. the different dialects of Late Latin that would become the Romance languages). Fighting against cultural assimilation isn't the only reason wars happen, you know.

They were cool on that front... not cool on taxation though. We (Wallachia/Romania) were their vassals and it was straight up robbery. You know what they didn't care about though? Alcohol. They gave 0 f**ks about alcohol, so we produced tons of that. But at the end of the day, we're bros now with Turkey. But yeah, Cathies and Proties were infinitely worse than Muslims.

In the last bit, civil war in West Virginia is complex. The state was torn in half as mostly northern and western counties of then-Virginia voted to stay with the union while mostly southern and eastern counties voted to secede. Many important battles and skirmishes; like Philippi, Jones Imboden Raid, and others; were fought here over the B and O railroad, access to the south for the north and access to d.c. for the south, and over the creation of our state; as its creation would cut deeper into the confederacy which the Union had found a foothold in. Families were literally pitted against each other as half of soldiers out of the state fought for the Union and the other half for the Confederacy. Our states creation and capture further pushed the bayonet into the rebels chest, as the Union would invade the south.
That French soldier lived in three centuries. Which makes you realize there’s someone living today who will likely do the same thing. Assuming the world doesn’t blow up before then.

A whole lot of people in the South remained loyal to the Union during the Civil War, though they may not have said so publicly. Besides western Virginia (which became the new state of West Virginia and re-entered the Union during the war), eastern Tennessee and Kentucky and northern Alabama and Mississippi were full of Union sympathizers. These were the mountainous, Appalachian parts of the South, which did not support large-scale plantation agriculture because of the terrain, and thus the people living there had no great interest in slavery--or in defending it.
Ottoman one is misleading. The ottomans allowed other religious groups to do whatever they wanted as long as they paid their taxes as well. (other than bosnia and albania of course lmao)
