Because slavery is wrong.
After the emancipation proclamation slavery was still legal almost everywhere except the united states. It is still legal in some parts of the world. The United States was one of the first countries to outlaw slavery.
if slavery was still legal today in the united states of America, i personally think the the whole nation would hate each other. the northerners would still be against slavery, and the southerners would still have plantations for slaves to work on. the nation would be in a major crisis if slavery was legal today.
Slavery was not legal in the Northern states during the Civil War. The Northern states had already abolished slavery before the outbreak of the war, while the Southern states still allowed slavery. This stark division between free and slave states was one of the key factors leading to the Civil War.

Yes slavery was and still is an issue in many countries (both legal and illegal).

After the Emancipation Proclamation, slavery was still legal in the border states (Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, West Virginia and Missouri) as well as in major Union-occupied areas of the Confederacy (all of Tennesee, part of the eastern coast of Virginia and much of southeast Louisiana including New Orleans). Between 1863-1865, three of the border states and all of the Union-occupation state governments abolished slavery on their own. So by the time the 13th Amendment was added, it was only still legal in Delware and Kentucky.
