Antietam (Sharpsburg) was the Union vixctory in September 1862 that gave Lincoln the credibility to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, liberating the slaves in the rebel-states - in theory, but not of course in practice, since he did not control those states.

The Civil War, depsite what most people believe, was not started over slavery. It was actually started over the election of the the 16th president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. Slavery only played a part of the role in the Civil War. Slavery affected the Civil War because many slaves came in to help the North win the Battle, which did not help. In the end the Civil War basically ended slavery, or abolished it.
In fact Lincoln owned slaves and viewed himself as a farmer or common man. Lincoln did not want to ban slavery on states that served as buffers between the Union and Confederacy states because the Confederacy would be able to attack easier its a battle strategy. Lincoln was more concerned with saving the Union at all cost than banning slavery
