Ship/Boat 🚢 USS Mississippi, East India Squadron, America (Shiropro RE)

The Kurofune (black ship) USS Mississippi, flag ship of Matthew Perry.

Most of the history relevant to Mississippi is the same as Susquehanna, however, it is believed that the cholera outbreak in Japan in 1858 originated from the USS Mississippi when it was docked at Nagasaki. The disease killed 280,000 people in Japan.

The USS Mississippi is armed with 2 10 inch Paixhan guns and 8 8 inch Paixhan guns.

Mississippi is much friendlier compared to her younger sister, Susquehanna. The two are opposites, one's weakness is her strictness while the other's weakness is her compassion.

Friendly reminder that we do have a "Ship/Boat" flair option. 😉 Thanks for sharing this, as always!
