When I was younger, I thought that in a war, one army would go on one side and the other would go on the other side of the battlefield. They wouldn't move, just kneel and shoot their guns. The side with the most people alive at the end won.
Once when I was in first grade, I renacted the Civil War with pennies and they fought it like I thought they did.
