One of the major outcomes of the North winning the U.S. Civil War was the abolition of Slavery.
After the war broke out, through a legal maneuver the Union general Benjamin Butler, stated that any slave who came into "Union possession" were considered contraband of war, and because of this, they were not subject to be returned to their original owners, the Confederates. And as a result the word was spread and soon many slaves sought refuge in the Union territory in order to be declared as "contraband".
Later general Butler's interpretation was reinforced by the Confiscation Act of 1861, which stated that any Confederate military's property, including slaves, could be confiscated by Union forces.
And finally, due to the Emancipation Proclamation issued on January 1st, 1863, in a single stroke over 3 million slaves in designated areas of the Confederacy changed their legal status and were recognized by the U.S. government as free people.

The impact of this religion has and still is affecting humanity. Due to the nature of written religious texts, people inherently interpret them how they see fit. During the time of the crusades was the first major event that Islam was a part of. Judaism, Christianity, and the Muslim religion all considered Jerusalem the holy city, and all wanted their religion to have ownership over it. This was a bloody time for humanity, and it was all based around battling over holy land. Muslims still kept their holy land and to this day remain the most populated religion in that region. The next major historical event happened many years later when a bunch of radicals Muslims flew into the world trade centers. This was the story we are told, no one knows for sure exactly who bombed who, there are many theories that the U.S. government did it so they had a right to go into the Middle East for oil. Either way, the story goes that these extremists crashed plains into the twin towers and the pentagon to show that they were not happy with how American functions. This created a war between the lands that is still going on today.
