Answer:
Explanation:
The Battle of Fredericksburg on December 13, 1862, involved nearly 200,000 combatants, the largest concentration of troops in any Civil War battle. Ambrose Burnside, the newly appointed commander of the Army of the Potomac, had ordered his more than 120,000 troops to cross the Rappahannock River, where they made a two-pronged attack on the right and left flanks of Robert E. Lee’s 80,000-strong Army of Northern Virginia at Fredericksburg. On both ends, Lee’s rebel defenders turned back the Union assault with heavy casualties (nearly 13,000), particularly from their high position atop Marye’s Heights. The results of the battle sent Union morale plummeting and lent much-needed new energy to the Confederate cause after the failure of Lee’s first invasion of the North at Antietam the previous fall.

Answer:
They have kept the country intact
Explanation:
I think this is a very interesting question. In my opinion, I think they have kept the country intact, look at it this way. Political parties means that there exists choice for the people. Absence of political parties makes it a 1 man ruling without the necessary checks and balances. Like in that of a monarchical ruling t, or military ruling. Essentially, one can do and undo as one wishes.
Now, the advent of political parties brings choice, meaning the people can choose. In a situation where party A doesn't fulfill its political campaign promises, they are at risk of being voted out by the people for party B. Party B themselves won't sit down idle, while not in power, they wake the people up to the wrongdoings of party A.
Like I said, the presence of political parties brings choice to the people, and also creates checks and balances. So, yes, they have kept the country intact.
