Abraham Lincoln was the leader of the Union, or the northern united states, during the civil war. The civil war was the conflict that led to the abolishment of slavery. However, the war was more about preventing states from having the right to secede than to abolish slavery. Lincoln banned slavery in order to cripple the southern economy, making a union victory easier.
