By the end of the Civil War Missouri had supplied nearly 110,000 troops to the Union and at least 30,000 troops for the Confederate Army with additional bands of pro–Confederate guerrillas. There were battles and skirmishes in all areas of the state, from Iowa and the Illinois border in the northeast to the edge of the state in the southeast and southwest on the Arkansas border. Counting minor engagements, actions and skirmishes, Missouri saw over 1,200 distinct fights. Only Virginia and Tennessee exceeded Missouri in the number of clashes within the state's boundaries.〔(Missouri Secretary of State, "Abstract of Wars & Military Engagements: War of 1812 through World War I" )〕〔(Missouri Civil War Museum )〕 By the War's end, some 447 Missouri Regiments like the ''1st Missouri Volunteer Cavalry Regiment'' fought for the Union.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1st Missouri Volunteer Cavalry Regiment」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
