Sectionalism is the idea that a person is loyal to the region in which they live rather than their country. This was seen in the United States, especially during the pre-Civil War years. During this time, also known as the antebellum era, many Northerners and Southerners identified themselves by the region they live rather than as Americans. This was caused by several different factors, one of the most prevelant being whether or not the institution of slavery should be expanded into new territories gained by the US during westward expansion.
Answer:
Robert E. Lee surrendered to Ulysses Grant at Appomattox Courthouse after Lee recognized the futility of continued fighting.
Explanation:
The Battle of Appomattox Court House was fought on April 9, 1865, between Union Army forces commanded by general Ulysses S. Grant and Confederate forces led by general Robert E. Lee.
Lee abandoned Richmond, Virginia (the Confederate capital) and moved west, hoping to regroup with other remanining Confederate units in North Carolina. However, Union forces pursued the Lee army and engaged it at Appomattox Court House. Lee charged the Union lines but, as he broke their line, he saw that further Union forces vastly outnumbering the Confederate army were advancing to join the battle. <u>Upon realizing the futility of his situation</u>, general Lee famously declared: "There is nothing left for me to do but to go and see General Grant and I would rather die a thousand deaths".
Robert E. Lee surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant that same day, which eventually led to a domino effect with other Confederate armies surrendering shortly after. The Civil War formally ended on May 9, 1865.
The the Byzantine Empire tolerated Christianity this led to greater unification in the empire since many regions that had previously been persecuted were free to engage with society.

Explanation:
After the World War I, with millions washed away, people thought it was the end, but the break of World War II was even more worst than World War I. World War II or also known as the Second World War was fought between 1939 – 1945 in the Europe and Asia.
It was the worst of wars where more than 38 million people died and the most destructive war in the history of mankind. More than 50 nations took part in the war and it did change the world forever.
After the World War I, though the peace treaty was signed, this was the actual cause for another war. Germany was totally devastated from the war and it was then the Nazi Leader Hitler who took over and started his rule. It was the conquering of Europe by Hitler that eventually began the World War II from Europe. His invasion to Poland was the reason. Germany tried to conquer Britain but failed as they could not beat the Britain Royal Air force.
This was the largest armed battle in the history with the usage of deadly weapons, warplanes, battleships and first usage of nuclear bombs which took place. There was killing of innocent people in massive scale. By 1939, Germans troops invaded Poland and by 1941 the US also joined the war thereby taking the leadership too. By 1945, Germany surrendered thereby ending the war in Europe.
However the war in the Pacific did not end, until the US dropped two atomic bombs in Japan which was the most devastating action in history and by 1945 Japan also surrendered.
The after effects of this World War II is still being suffered by the people of Japan, even after decades has passed by. The World War II was one among the most destructive wars in the history of the world.
