Answer:
The Battle of Nashville.
Explanation:
The Confederate forces, commanded by John Bell Hood, had already suffered heavy casualties against General John Scofield, at Franklin, Tennessee. When Scofield moved north to Nashville to reunite with General George Thomas, Hood followed him, despite being greatly outnumbered, and placed his troops outside Nashville's strong defenses.
Thomas saw the opportunity to strike the decisive blow and took it. The confederate army suffered a terrible defeat, and the few survivors had to retreat to Mississippi.
Hood signed his resignation shortly after that.

<u>How did the Union's victory strengthen the federal government</u>? The war demonstrated that the federal government would not tolerate states acting on their own (by making the Union more powerful than the other states). A stronger central government is more effective (the Union's victory), and the federal government owned the south for years after that to help rebuild from the civil war (giving them more power over the south). It also freed millions of African-Americans.
<em>States rights were largely made irrelevant, and the federal government took on powers forbidden by the Constitution.</em>
