There are a lot of parallels between Reconstruction and the problems in Iraq or any other kind of nation building. It is kind of amazing that it only took 100 years or so after the Civil War to largely get the Civil Rights movement to be successful there.

We get perplexed when Southerners complain about the Civil War today, but compared to the long memories in Yugoslavia it isn't bad at all.
