Identity and Allegiance

the ideas of identity and allegiance are two of the most complex concepts wer humans will have to undertak and understand in our life times. Take for example General Robert E. Lee. Trained at west point he was offered supreme command of the union army by President Abraham Lincoln. Lee's loyalties however proved to be sectional and he decided to fight for the south. If he had accepted the union's offer the civil war would have ended three years early. These concepts of loyalty, identity and allegiance are awfully complex.
