Effects on English Grammar

After the Civil War ended, the correct usage became "The United States is..." rather than "The United States are..." as had been the common way of speaking of this country prior to the Civil War. It cemented the fact that this was a single country, instead of a collection of independent states.

The Civil War affected the United States, as a nation and as a society, in numerous ways. Most significantly, a large portion of its members achieved freedom, thereby releasing new energy and initiative (and administering a long-delayed justice) into the nation while, at the same time, causing considerable resentment and difficulty, especially in the nation's southern region.
