When searching google Ngram for the original terms of both the War of 1812 (lowercase 'war of 1812') and the American Civil War ('Great Rebellion', 'War of the Rebellion'), it makes me question the chronology of both wars and that judging by the sizes of data sets, one could get the idea that the American Civil War is actually part of a larger War of 1812, if we were to consider @KorbenDallas Phantom Time theory:
I know this coincidence isn't actually concrete evidence, but I did not expect the overlap. It appears by this that the history of War of 1812 is pushed up into the era of the Civil War. Why is there 3x to 4x more references to the War of 1812 during the Civil War than the Civil War at that time? What do others think?
