They represented the failure of both attempts by the Confederates to invade the North and gain credibility abroad.

Antietam was the unexpected Northern victory that gave Lincoln the authority to issue the Emancipation Proclamation - making it ethically impossible for the British to send military aid to the Confederates.

Gettysburg put Lee out of action for many months. Together with the same-day defeat at Vicksburg, this moment was called the Confederate High Watermark.

Where was the majority of the Civil War fougth?

It was mostly fought in the South, but I'm not sure in what state the majority was fought in. About half of the major battles were fought in Virginia and Tennessee. However, the battles that formed the "turning points" of the war were in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and Vicksburg, Mississippi. The first battle was in Charleston, South Carolina and the last major battle was in North Carolina.
