What effect did the civil war have on the western movement?
The Civil War significantly accelerated the western movement in the United States by prompting the federal government to focus on westward expansion as a means of economic recovery and national unity.

Additionally, the war's aftermath saw an influx of veterans seeking new opportunities and land in the West, further driving the expansion.

Westward expansion refers to the 19th-century movement of settlers into the American West, driven by the belief in Manifest Destiny—the idea that Americans were destined to expand across the continent.
