long term effects of the war of 1812
1.Both sides started eschewing war as a way of settling their differences. Anglo-American rivalry continued to exist until World War I, but after the War of 1812 both sides were more willing to talk over their differences. This led to the establishment of borders and fishing rights being negotiated over the next hundred years with no shots being fired 2.The Americans suffered losses from privateering and began to see it as a bad idea (the States was one of the last nations to abandon it). 3.The American philosophy for fighting war changed from "militias" to "regular army". During the next forty years, the United States built a professional army and stopped relying on militia for defence. By the Civil War, both sides were fighting with professional armies who received regular pay, were extensively trained, and had officers promoted on merit rather than connections.
