Answer:

During the Civil War, Mark Twain fought for the Confederacy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Twain decided to fight for the Confederacy to support Missouri against. Union invaders. This reasoning was similar to the argument Robert E. Lee gave; He sided with the Confederacy to support his home state of Virginia. After his first taste of the battefield, Twain deserted the Confederate army and head for the Nevada territory.

Hope this helps :D
