The Battle of Shiloh began on April, 6, 1862, when the confederate troops of General Albert Sidney Johnston surprised some of General Ulysses Grants Union troops who camped at Shiloh Church. After one day of of the bloodiest battle at that time, the southerners had driven the Northeners far back until the Tennesse River. The battle was six miles long. During the night Gants troops surprised Johnstons troops and defeated his army. General Johnston died in that night.
The Battle of Antietam started on Sept. 17, 1862, after the union found an attack order of Robert E. Lee wrapped around some cigars. On Sept. 17th, the Confederates had about 40,000 troops while the Union had about 75,000 troops and about 25,000 more in reserve. During the first three hours about 12,000 soldiers were killed or wounded. By the end of the day, the Union had about 12.000 killed soldiers while the confederacy had about 14.000 killed soldiers. The Battle of Antietam became the bloodiest battle of the Civil War.
No, The Battle of Shiloh had more casualties. It was one of the bloodiest battles of the war. Antietam, however, stands as the bloodiest single day of combat and in terms of killed and wounded they are very nearly the same.
Both Antietam and Gettysburg were fought in the North.
