The North had its share of problems during the U.S Civil War. Late in the war, when victories are few and casualties are high, the Union employed conscription to alleviate manpower shortages.

In general, World War II played a role in the eventual decolonization of Southeast Asia because the Japanese lost the war and were forced to give up many of their holdings.
The mexican war resulted in additional territory and their was controversy in whether slavery should be allowed in the new territory.
Hope this helped!
