Key items to remember from today’s lesson
• The “bloodiest” day in American history was the Battle of Antietam, Maryland.
• The Union “victory” at Antietam allowed President Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation.
• Great Britain and France remained neutral and did not enter the war on the side of the Confederacy.
• The Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves in the Confederate States(Eventually all states would free their slaves)
• With African Americans joining the armed forces, the United States had a greater advantage over the Confederate States because of its number of soldiers and sailors.
