Toward the end of the war General Sherman marched his troops from Georgia to Charleston in his infamous march to the sea. Along the way Sherman burned almost everything in his armies way, as well as looting and plundering anything of value for his and his armies use.
Sherman’s march to the sea had the intended effect on southern moral. It helped break the southern fighting will therefor helped preserve the union. The use of force, in this case military, can be used to keep together a divided nation. Even though it was morally wrong it did help win the war and keep the United States together.
