Hi, First, Let me explain line by line,
1} What allowed President Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation?
Ans:- Abraham Lincoln was forced to issue the Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1862 as a response to the heavy losses inflicted at the Battle of Antietam.
2} Did it end slavery in the United States? Why or why not?
Ans:- Yes. After the Union victory on May 1865. When the Thirteenth Amendment, December 1865 was issued, slavery was ended in the United States. But unfortunately, even till today, some people are hiring slaves without the knowledge of other people and the government.
3} How did the Proclamation impact the Civil War?
Ans:- Yes, absolutely. In the year January 1, 1863, Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation. It also changed the aim of the war from preserving the Union to a fight for freedom of human rights.
With this proclamation, he tried to free all slaves in the Southern areas. But, sadly, the Emancipation Proclamation did not include slaves in the parts of the Confederacy under the high control of the Union.
I hope this will be a good opinion from my side.
