amnesty

The north granted amnesty to the south after the war was over. which means the north forgave the south for everything they did. this is a huge thing to give forgivness to compared to now a days where people dont forgive eachother after a little fight nevertheless killing thousand of eachothers men. its almost like the leader of the bloods going to the crips and saying ill forget about all are problems and all of the members you kiled but the bloods and crips never got to the point of a war like the north and south did .the north gave amnesty to a war !wich is the biggest conflict there can be between to sides. But lincolns main purpose of the war was to restore the united states wich basically means they were fighting for peace wich are complete oppisates. but it seems as they almost had too give amnesty to make the war a complete success even though they already won the battle. if they didnt grant amnesty then the war wouldnt have done anythng except to deterimine if the north or south had the better millitary. if they didnt grant amnesty the south most likely would have been just as mad as before if not even more because now there embarresed they lost. but since they did grant amnesty it gave a chance for the north and south to be united again as the united states of america wich we still are today.
