Believe it or not, Disney was going to start a historical theme park in Virginia some 20 years ago, but it fell through due to citizen resistance to the sprawl which happened later anyway.<br>
<br>
Disney's park would have focused on US history, and was supposed to be entertaining, but they never answered the question of how they were going to do the old South with slaves and make that fun. There were actually rides planned through the plantation.<br>
<br>
I would think you'd be better off avoiding any primary focus on fun or disney like attractions and go for history and education. <p></p><i></i>
