Three battles were won by the confederate
The US Civil War placed pressure on Maryland because it was a slave state and there were a good number of pro-Confederate forces within the state. The war's impact was severe. President Lincoln used Federal troops to help keep it part of the Union and he may have violated the civil rights of its citizens by suspending habeas corpus. In addition,Confederate Lieutenant General Robert E. Lee conducted a raid into Maryland in September of 1862. He hoped to gain support there for a move into the Confederacy. Maryland was also impacted by the Battle of Antietam. This one day battle on September 17, 1862 was the bloodiest single day of combat in the war, and in US history more Americans were killed there then in any other future one day battles in US history.

The Battle of Antietam took place near the Antietam Creek, near Sharpsburg, Maryland in September of 1862. This was the first time Confederate General Lee took his forces into Union territory. Maryland was a slave state that remained in the Union. It was one of the bloodiest battles in American history. Union General Burnside, under the command of General George B. McClellan forced Lee back into Virginia as a result of the battle. Not long afterwards US President Lincoln visited General McClellan to see the battlefield itself.
