The Gettysburg Address and the Battle of Gettysburg are related. The Battle of Gettysburg was known as the turning point of the war because so many Confederate soldiers were killed and the Confederates could no longer attempt to fight on Union ground or take the offensive side in a battle. This was because they had so many casualties. The Union had many casualties, too.

You have Gorski, don't you -_-' IMPROVEMENT Gettysburg
ANSWER Because they represented the turning point of the war in favour of the Union. After Vicksburg the Confederacy lost the control of the Mississippi and was split into two parts and after Gettysburg the Confederate armies were pinned down to stay on the mere defensive without being able to regain any effective strategic initiative.

Although Gettysburg was not entirely a victory for the Union, it was very much a defeat for the South. The Confederate Army was never again able to gain the strength for a significant attack on the Union Armies. The defeat meant that England and France would not recognize the Confederacy as its own country. Furthermore, at the exact same time as the battle at Gettysburg, General Grant was able to crush the opposition and take Vicksburg, the last Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi River. This meant that Union boats and supplies could use the great river. The first week of July, 1863, was very bad for the Confederacy.
