Über diesen Titel

By the 1840s, the United States was no longer one nation — it was two, bound by commerce but divided by conscience. In this sweeping episode, Blood and Union journeys through the rise of industry in the North and the cotton empire of the South, tracing how progress and oppression grew side by side.

From the roar of the Lowell mills to the hush of Southern plantations, we explore the machinery, money, and moral contradictions that defined an age. Voices like Sarah Bagley, Thomas Jefferson, and John C. Calhoun reveal a world torn between invention and inheritance — while figures such as Robert E. Lee, James Longstreet, and Abraham Lincoln emerge from these forces shaped, scarred, and transformed.

Featuring a special “Truth from the Ashes” segment, this episode dismantles the enduring myths of the antebellum era and reveals how technology, ideology, and human ambition set the United States on an unstoppable collision course with itself.
