History very short 500 word Essay needed TODAY!
The end of the Civil War left the United States in tatters. The southern states that had seceded from the Union in the interests of preserving the right to own slaves were devastated economically from four years of war. The northern states that had emerged as victors in the Civil War also had suffered. The task that faced the nation was not only one of reuniting two constituencies who had bitterly fought one another but also of finding a way to heal. The healing, many says, is still continuing.
