Answer:

It reduced abolished slavery and made a very great impact in the economy of every nation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Civil War had a greater impact on American society and the polity than any other event in the country's history. It was also the most traumatic experience endured by any generation of Americans. At least 620,000 soldiers lost their lives in the war, 2 percent of the American population in 1861.

War makes a soldier value life like no one else. The brotherhood of war makes a soldier respect and love his peers. War makes a soldier focus only on the important things in life. PTSD is post traumatic stress disorder.

The ENTIRE Civil War was about money, taxation and growing the power of a federal government over individual state rights. The end of slavery was not intended at the time the war started as most of the worlds countries at the time used slavery and serfdom to build their economies. ... The war ended slavery in this nation.
