"Greatest democracies"? I acknowledge they are 2 great nations but in the modern era which nation was the first to give all adult male and female citizens the vote? The USA? No. Great Britain? No again.

It was New Zealand. The same place you go to find someone capable of being the first to climb to the top of the world's highest mountain .

Thanks for creating this thread, Rcaff 777. My knowledge of the War of 1812 is woefully inadequate and reading this thread has made me want to learn more about it.
