Is this the most obscure period being reenacted?
History is a very geographically related subject; just to prove it this must count on an international basis as the most obscure period reenacted - the 10 days war of 1831 - in the Low Countries. Chances are, like me, you'v never heard of it and I don't suppose many people out of the area know it at all but it does look pretty.

For further information on this refreshingly short and sweet war go here http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Belgian-Revolution

I think it's great and wish them well - in fact I think we in Britain should form two societies to do this - and then both societies can hate each other and have nothing to do with one another
