What were the key consequences of the War of 1812 for the United States? Would you say the United States won this war? Why or why not?
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER
Consider: demise of the Federalist Party; opening of the West to white settlement, strengthened position of the United States toward Spanish holdings in North America; restoration of pride by having defended the nation’s honor and independence, etc. America’s military performance during the war was mediocre and the British made no concessions on issues that Madison mentioned in his war message.
