Here are some things which come to mind for me.
Mythos. God necessatated explaining, creating mythos/ religion. That necessated a higher level of morality, defining moral terpitude. I can see that leading us further away from naturalistic communal morals towards idealistic morals.
The first and second great awakening. Leading to much better communication between communities and the need for roads. The temperance movement. Reformation.
Dr. Samuel Gridley Howe, Thomas Gallaudet, many religions have opened up lots of school, increasing the opportunity for higher education.
Abolition of Slavery. Assisting in women's rights.
I don't have any more off the top of my head I'm not much of a historian but I'll come up with more if needed.
