Why was the Battle of Antietam considered critical?

axie:

Let me do a quick search ab it but i do remember one thing, that it is the deadliest battle in USA military history

axie:

So lincoln had the emancipation proclamation ready to go (the doc that declared all man free) but bc of his side losing many battles recently he was afraid to release it bc no one would listen to hit, he needed to win a battle, and this gave him the chance to do that. https://www.history.com/topics/american-civil-war/battle-of-antietam this should help a fair bit

hhanan:

ok thank you

axie:

have a great day
