Actually, it looks
better than a lot of US reenactments I've seen! These guys are serious about authenticity (not so sure about all that beer guzzling at the end, but it sure looks good!) I've become Facebook friends with Civil War reenactors in England and Poland (both musicians) over the last few years and they've posted some great pictures of events over there. They may not have huge numbers, but they make up for it with enthusiasm. There was a video of some Russians doing a Civil War reenactment a few years ago, and they really went at it, even some very close fighting that left some injured, but they seemed to enjoy that. When we had the 150th Gettysburg reenactment in PA, there were reenactors from 35 countries other than the US participating.
My question is--what is it about the American Civil War that resonates so deeply with people in other countries that they want to reenact it? The reenactors I've met online from overseas also do other time periods, as do I. But while I may reenact the Rev War and F&I War in addition to the Civil War, you don't see anyone here reenacting the Napoleonic Wars or the Wars of Austrian Succession.
In any event, here are a couple of pictures from a Civil War reenactment in Poland that one of my Facebook friends posted recently:
