Answer 1

The main benefit to the United States of the War of 1812 was a new sense of pride among Americans in their country. While the war did address issues such as impressment and led to some territorial settlements, the significant outcome was the boost in national identity and unity among Americans, often referred to as the "Era of Good Feelings" that followed the war.
