Historical Sketch and Roster of the Georgia 6th Cavalry Battalion State Guards
The Georgia 6th Cavalry Battalion State Guards was formed in August 1863 to serve for six months as local defense in the northwest section of the state.The battalion was comprised of horse soldiers from Chattooga and Walker counties. The only verified engagement with the enemy is noted on January 22, 1864, at the "Battle of Subligna" in Chattooga County. As Sherman threatened in the spring of 1864, most of these men probably joined in with Wheeler's or Forrest's troops for the Atlanta and Carolinas campaign, but records are sparse.

State Power
The question of how to theorize power and the state has been a central concern of the field of womens, gender, and sexuality studies, and the long history of privatization woven into state governance has shaped the form of activism addressing work, sexuality, political power, kinship, care, and much more. This special issue of WSQexamines how social movements have theorized, organized, and otherwise strategized around state formations, with a focus on the US and an understanding that state power and strategies of resistance are not limited by national borders.

Which historical state do you find most interesting?
I find the Roman Empire to be the most interesting historical state. The Roman Empire had a significant impact on the development of Western civilization, from its political and military achievements to its cultural and architectural contributions. The empire's rise and fall, as well as its complex societal structure and governance, make it a fascinating subject of study. Additionally, the Roman Empire's influence can still be seen in modern society, making it a compelling area of historical exploration.

Is Germany the successor state of the Roman Empire?
No, Germany is not the successor state of the Roman Empire. The Roman Empire fell in 476 AD, while Germany as a unified state did not come into existence until the 19th century. Additionally, the Roman Empire encompassed a much larger territory than modern-day Germany, and its influence extended far beyond the borders of what is now Germany. While Germany may have been influenced by the Roman Empire, it cannot be considered its direct successor.
-
Is Germany a successor state of the Roman Empire?
Germany is not considered a direct successor state of the Roman Empire. While parts of modern-day Germany were once part of the Roman Empire, the Germanic tribes that eventually settled in the region after the fall of the empire were not a direct continuation of Roman rule. The Holy Roman Empire, which included parts of modern-day Germany, was a separate entity that was established in the Middle Ages and was not a direct successor to the Roman Empire.
-
Unitary state or federal state?
The choice between a unitary state and a federal state depends on the specific needs and circumstances of a country. A unitary state may be more suitable for smaller countries with a homogenous population and a strong central government, while a federal state may be more appropriate for larger countries with diverse populations and a need for regional autonomy. Ultimately, the decision should be based on the balance of power between the central government and regional authorities, as well as the ability to effectively govern and meet the needs of the population.

Sea State
‘Sea State marks the arrival of a gifted and exciting new voice’ Jon McGregor, author of Reservoir 13 SHORTLISTED FOR THE GORDON BURN PRIZE SHORTLISTED FOR THE PORTICO PRIZE A GUARDIAN BEST BOOK OF 2021 A candid examination of the life of North Sea oil riggers, and an explosive portrayal of masculinity, loneliness and female desire. In her mid-30s and sprung out of a terrible relationship, Tabitha quit her job at a women’s magazine, left London and put her savings into a six-month lease on a flat in a dodgy neighbourhood in Aberdeen – she was going to make good on a long-deferred idea for a book about oil rigs and the men who work on them.Why oil rigs? “I wanted to see what men were like, with no women around.” Sea State is, on the one hand, a portrait of an overlooked industry, and a fascinating subculture in its own right: ‘offshore’ is a way of life for generations of British workers, primarily working class men.Offshore is also a potent metaphor for a lot of things we might rather keep at bay – class, masculinity, the North-South divide, the transactional nature of desire, the terrible slipperiness of the ladder that could lead us towards (or away from) real security, just out of reach.? And Sea State is, too, the story of a journalist whose distance from her subject becomes perilously thin.In Aberdeen, when she’s not researching the book, Tabitha takes pills and dances with a forgotten kind of abandon – reliving her Merseyside youth, when the music was good and the boys were bad.Twenty years on, there is Caden: a married rig worker who spends three weeks on and three weeks off.Alone and increasingly precarious, she dives in deep.The relationship, reckless and explosive, lays them both bare.?

How can one pay with a collectible coin?
One can pay with a collectible coin by finding a willing buyer who is interested in the specific coin and is willing to exchange goods or services for it. The value of the coin will need to be agreed upon by both parties, and the transaction can be completed by physically exchanging the coin for the agreed-upon value. Alternatively, the coin can be sold to a dealer or collector for its market value, and the proceeds can then be used to make a purchase. It's important to note that some collectible coins may have a higher value as a collector's item than their face value, so it's important to research and understand the value of the coin before attempting to use it as payment.
