How did the Civil War affect America’s Future?

• I think that the civil war was the best thing that ever happened to the America. because I think that if we had never had the war that their. would still be a lot of racism I also think that we would. still be fighting and we also would still have a lot of racism around. so I am glad that we had the war. because it helped us all come together as friends and also some what as family.
