(October 2013) Mesoamerican chronology divides the history of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica into several periods: the Paleo-Indian (first human habitationâ3500 BCE), the Archaic (3500â2000), the Preclassic or Formative (2000 BCEâ200 CE), the Classic (200 CEâ1000CE), and the Postclassic (1000 CEâ1697 CE).
John Hay called the Spanish-American War a splendid little war  because it was short but substantial. It lasted a little over three  months and resulted in the total defeat â¦ and collapse of the Spanish  Empire at the hands of the Americans.
Another difference is the reason  behind the war. World War One was fought because the next in line  for Austria-Hungary's throne was killed and the allies of  Austria-Hungary and Serbia all helped out so a small war turned  into a World War.The American Civil War was very different, it was  fought over the rights to have slaves.. 8 people found this useful.orld War One was different to any other war because it was the first war of that size and importance and it was also the first war that spanned across the world.
