Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If they had received word that the war was already over a lot of things would have changed. The Battle of New Orleans was considered the greatest US land victory of all time and pushed the British back a large enough distance that it pushed the fledgling US into a state of power. It bolstered US morale for a speedy end to the war and even was important to holding New Orleans from British control.
