The Emancipation Proclamation, issued by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863, declared the freedom of all enslaved people in Confederate-held territory. While it did not immediately free any enslaved individuals, it fundamentally transformed the Civil War's purpose, adding the abolition of slavery to the Union's goals. It also allowed for the enlistment of Black soldiers in the Union Army, bolstering its ranks and contributing to the eventual defeat of the Confederacy. Ultimately, it set the stage for the Thirteenth Amendment, which abolished slavery in the United States.
