USA HISTORY

Detailed explanation-2: -Some of the major effects of the war of 1812 were increased patriotism in the United States and increased respect for the US from other countries. The US military and manufacturing were also strengthened. There was also a decline in the power of the Federalist party, as well as less threat from Native Americans.

Detailed explanation-3: -A burst of American nationalism following after the War of 1812 was bred by the growing of both economic and diplomatic independence. Through this, factories became less dependent on European workshops during the war thus increasing the nationalist movement sweeping the country (Page 232).

Detailed explanation-4: -Nationalism is a feeling of pride, loyalty, and protectiveness toward your country. The War of 1812 sent this feeling of nationalism through the country.
