Yet, I refer more in part to the defense of a major southern port. New Orleans = Ebou Dar, or at least resistance. Using a sea faring people in its defense the Athan'Miere = to Jean Lafitte's pirates. The banking overhauls self explanatory. I would refer to the Seanchan as a parallel to the English. (At least the invasion) Mat's defeat of Couladin, to Jackson's defeat of the Creek Nation.
Don't get me wrong I dislike Jackson as well. I was wondering if you thought Jordan might have gotten some inspiration for Mat, or his story from Jackson's life.

The past is just that, the past. You can only truly live by looking to the future!
Is Mat a parallel to Andrew Jackson?

Don't bother, even looking at wiki I don't understand how Mat is similar to Andrew Jackson. *NM*
