One of the coolest things that happened for us this year at Emerging Civil War is that we hit our 5,000th post. It went up on May 22, 2020, at 6:00 a.m.
Our first-ever post went up on August 18, 2011, at 8:12 p.m. So, it took us just shy of nine years–and a lot of hard work and great writing by a fantastic team of talented writers and historians–to reach that 5,000th-post milestone.
To commemorate our 5,000 posts, we asked our writers to share a favorite story from their time working on the blog.
