Change: A Result of War

The American Civil War was a pivotal event in U.S. history, resulting in significant loss of life and leading to major societal changes. President Lincoln aimed to preserve the Union and abolish slavery, issuing the Emancipation Proclamation. The war's end brought economic hardship to the South and initiated the Reconstruction era, during which the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments were passed, granting freedom, citizenship, and voting rights to formerly enslaved people. These changes marked a new beginning for the United States.
