How many states did Robert E. Lee go in for battle?
Most of Lee's battles were fought in Virginia, but Antietam was in Maryland, and Gettysburg was in Pennsylvania.
Why did Lincoln annouce the Emancipation proclamation 5 days after the battle ended?
He held a cabinet meeting to determine if Antietam provided enough of a victory to allow the publication of the Proclimation. Even at that, the Proclamation did not go into effect immediately, but was scheduled to go into effect on January 1, 1863, to give the rebelling states the opportunity to rejoin the Union before losing their slaves.
The emancipation proclamation was given before what battle?
Antietam. It was the unexpected Northern victory that gave Lincoln the credibility to issue this Proclamation without making it sound like a desperate measure. The battle was actually a tactical draw, not a real Northern victory, but Lincoln decided to go ahead anyway.
What was the result from the american victory at Yorktown?
Losing the battle was a big screw up for Britain. The battle at Yorktown was the last and final battle of the 6-year Revolutionary war. Major quarrels in the colonies were over, but British troops still held a few American cities, and at year-end, Parliament had British troops completely let go of America.

What best describes the positioning of General Lee's troops just before the Battle of Antietam?
Confederate General Robert E. Lee chose to take a defensive position in Sharpsburg in anticipation of the advance of General McClellan's Army of the Potomac. Lee's forces would fight a defensive battle at Antietam. His troop positions formed a four mile arc around the Antietam Valley. The troop alignment gave Lee the advantage of moving his reserves and shifting his troops along interior lines.The distances was far shorter than McClellan would have, especially if he chose to go around the end of one of the arcs. This tactical advantage would help the weakness in his numbers of troops, however, Lee was going to rely on the rapid movements of Stonewall Jackson and the expected poor tactics of McClellan.
