The American Revolution.
The event after 1789 that helped to unify the nation is The American Revolution.
A revolution by citizens or colonists is "revolutionary" because the risk can be immense, even if the goal and reasons are just. It was also the first full "revolution" in modern history of colonists acting in concert (as a group in mostly full agreement) against their motherland.

The American Revolution started mainly because of taxes. The British gave overpriced taxes to the colonists.
The American Revolution made the United States a nation.
The American Revolution aimed to gain independence from British rule and establish a sovereign nation. Colonists sought to challenge oppressive taxation, lack of representation, and restrictions on their rights and freedoms. The revolution was driven by Enlightenment ideals of liberty, democracy, and self-governance, ultimately leading to the creation of the United States and its foundational principles.
