In an economic sense the north lost: 1 million combatants and 4 million civilians killed, they've got to live in hand-carved underground tunnels etc. Obviously they wouldn't have succeeded if the Russians weren't giving them shitloads of resources.
As far as evolution goes, they are pretty much dead already.
But that's exactly the point I wanted to make. If you accidentally mutate a man too much, so that he becomes a new species, how will he find a woman, he procreate with? He can't.

"If that's NOT your aim, and your question is a serious one, then I submit that it's harder to name a war that ISN'T fought for a moral cause."

Who gives a shit about native Americans, right? They don't blow up twin-towers.
