The establishment of a national bank was not a consequence of the Civil War.

While the Civil War did lead to significant changes in American society, including the abolition of slavery, increased federal government power, and disruptions in agricultural production due to the war's devastation, the establishment of a national bank was not a direct consequence of the Civil War itself. The National Banking Act, which created a system of national banks and a uniform currency, was enacted in 1863, but its origins were traced back to earlier economic reforms rather than the war’s immediate impacts.
