Mormon 2
The Nephites were fortunate that they chose Mormon to lead them at such a young age. I have. I doubt that he was the best choice. Even so, they must have been bereft of leaders that they should choose a 16-year old to lead them in battle.
I also realized how confused things must have been because the division between Nephite and Lamanite was a matter of choice rather than geography. It was after more than two decades of war that they divided the land between the two groups. A few more decades will see the Lamanites fully overthrow the Nephites despite the agreed upon division.
