Forgotten wars happen to the best of us. The Netherlands was at war with Jersey from the 17th century to the 21st century, until somebody noticed we had declared war four hundred years ago, but nobody could find the peace treaty. So, we signed an official peace declaration with Jersey a few years ago, and now all is well again.

It was the Scilly Isles in fact. The Dutch signed a peace treaty in 1986 although some people reckon that they had no right to start a war. The Dutch were still right to sign the treaty though. Probably the longest and most bloodless war in history - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Hundred_and_Thirty_Five_Years%27_War. Worth pointing out that the Korean war is still ongoing. It's just a very long ceasefire (and even that isn't kept).

So... I get the joke, but Hadrian's wall was much more effective than just requiring people to just hop over. First of all, it was made mostly of wood, because building stuff out of stone and brick in those days, especially without logistics support, was less feasible. But it was built very strong with similar methods to ship building, and it was manned and guarded, complete with gates and ballista emplacements, as well as proper corbels, parapets, and machicolations. Just all made out of wood, not stone. It was a proper wall, not just a fence. The remains today are indeed stone, but that was used for the foundations, which is of course why they remain today, because that part of the wall was built to really last. You can see along the wall protruding sections where there would have been rooms and areas for sleeping, war rooms, break rooms, all kinds of rooms, built into the wall itself, on the English side of course because you don't want to be caught unawares by barbarians just trying to have your morning scones and tea. But there are some remains of full-scale barracks and everything scattered about along the length of it. This is part of how we know it was a really effective wall.

[@remielpollard787]

@@demonking86420 in those days, in Europe, not so much, especially for something they needed to build fast. Stone was heavy, and would need to be transported, requiring quarrying and extensive logistics. The stone up the top of the wall would also need a lot more support in order to not just crumble to the ground, meaning construction would take a lot longer and require more extensive engineering. Wood, on the other hand, was something the Romans already had a lot of experience with in fortification construction. They mastered the art of wooden armour. I can't remember what the method is called but basically, you make one layer of wood with vertical planks, and another with horizontal. This is also how ships were built to be so solid, and an art that carried on into the classical era. Those kinds of fortifications made from wood still required a serious siege army to break, and as I said above, the Romans made very tough wooden fortifications. They often found themselves far outside of any reasonable lines of logistics, and had to master the art of using local materials to build what they needed, including roads. There was one very famous road they made out of wood through a swamp, but again, I forget the details of where and when for the time being.

It was confirmed even earlier by the Wales and Berwick Act 1746.

It wouldn't matter anyway, because "England and Scotland" would cover it regardless of which one it's in.

Fun fact! The part of Laurentia which Scotland split off from is now the Canadian province of Nova Scotia (or New Scotland for non Latin speakers) which was founded by Scottish immigrants… perhaps obviously. Nova Scotia’s Cape Breton Island bears an uncanny resemblance to the Scottish highlands and many of the road signs are in Gaelic as well as English. Now you know

[@JaneNewAuthor]

Where I live (Tasmania) was also part of it. Rocks on the NW Coast of Tasmania are the same as rocks in Nova Scotia. (I'm not a geologist, don't ask me to get technical). Parts of the West Coast of Tasmania look very Scottish, I'm told. Tasmania and mainland Australia are very different geologically.

The bit about the Berwick Upon Tweed peace treaty made me look up whether Berwick was specifically mentioned in the 1783 Treaty of Paris (peace treaty between the United Kingdom and the United States). It appears not to have been, although the 1746 Wales and Berwick-Upon-Tweed would make that moot. However, I was reminded of one of the more obtuse provisions of the Treaty, regarding the Mississippi River, which might make a basis for an interesting video in the future. The 1783 Treaty of Paris between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and the United States stipulates that British citizens shall "forever" have the right to freely navigate the Mississippi River. At the time, the Mississippi was the international border between the United States, the Spanish Viceroyalty of New Spain (Louisiana Territory) and the British-then-Spanish possession of West Florida (now part of the States of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida). This may or may not have been abrogated by Pinckney's Treaty of 1795, which claimed to exclude anyone not American or Spanish from the river (or at least the part that formed the boundary between the United States and Spain). In 1803, the Louisiana Territory was ceded to the United States by the First French Republic (which took over the Spanish claim in 1801).At that time the MIssissippi became internal to the United States ("flowing unvexed to the sea" since with the exception of the Civil War). The thing is, Googling the question, "do Brititish citizens still have the right to travel the MIssissippi" I don't get a terribly clear answer. I am tempted to write a letter to the US Coast Guard and ask them what their policy is on this today.

[@texasyojimbo]

*1746... Act (sorry missed a word).

[@ckl9390]

That would be interesting to see if Brits (or possibly any commonwealth nation) can freely treat the Mississippi as a right of way. Though I doubt it if the US's history of adhering to treaties is anything to go by.

[@Gahmuret]

@@ckl9390 Yes, but the US mostly only ignores treaties made with people with darker skin than the typical Anglo-Saxon.

[@leogama3422]

They can travel the Mississippi, if they can get there...

[@TheWinjin]

Please tell me you eventually wrote them a letter. Because I do wonder if they will honor this agreement, or there was some other one later on that states something along the line of "No one without a visa is allowed to enter the borders of the country" and this nullifies previous agreements of unhindered travel.
