there was no battle of antietam
The South fought fought major battles on northern soil at Antietam. Then there was the Battle of Chickamauga, the 3 Chattanooga Battles, and the Battle of Gettysburg
Pennsylvania (Gettysburg), Maryland (Antietam), and Kentucky - to name three.
The Battle of Antietam near Sharpsburg, Maryland and the Battle of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania.
Most of Lee's battles were fought in Virginia, but Antietam was in Maryland, and Gettysburg was in Pennsylvania.
Gettysburg was the only battle fought in Pennsylvania. And Antietam (Sharpsburg) was the only significant battle fought in Maryland. Every other battle of any consquence was in Southern territory.
A number of US Civil War battles were fought on Northern soil. The most significant ones were Gettysburg (Pennsylvania, 1863), South Mountain and Antietam (Maryland, 1862), Perryville (Kentucky, 1862), Wilson's Creek (Missouri, 1861), Buffington Island (Ohio, 1863), Monocacy Junction (Maryland, 1864), Fort Stevens (Washington, DC, 1864) and Falling Waters (Maryland, 1863). Gettysburg and Antietam ended Robert E. Lee's two invasions of the North (South Mountain was fought a few days before Antietam). Perryville ended Braxton Bragg's invasion of Kentucky. Wilson's Creek did much to save Missouri for the Union. Buffington Island put an end to John Hunt Morgan's Ohio Raid. Federals under Lew Wallace (who later wrote the epic novel "Ben Hur") slowed Jubal Early's Confederates who were on their way to Washington. Fort Stevens was a minor battle but it ended Early's invasion of the North. Falling Waters took place during Lee's retreat from Gettysburg.
Both Antietam and Gettysburg were fought in Union states, in the East; Perryville in the West.
During the American Civil War, two major battles were fought on Union soil. The first occurred on September 17, 1862, in Antietam, Maryland, and resulted in a draw (although the Confederate invasion of the Union ceased at that point). The second occurred on July 1-3, 1863, in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and resulted in a Union victory.
Both Antietam and Gettysburg were fought in the North.
Yes, Bentonville, right at the end. It was Joe Johnston's last throw.
Gettysburg. Antietam was the bloodiest one-day battle.
