The Emancipation Proclamation, issued by President Lincoln during the Civil War, had a significant impact on both the war and slavery in the United States. It declared that all enslaved people in Confederate states were to be freed, changing the war's focus to include the abolition of slavery. This proclamation also encouraged enslaved individuals to escape to Union lines, weakening the Confederacy's labor force. Ultimately, the Emancipation Proclamation helped shift the war's purpose towards ending slavery and laid the groundwork for the eventual abolition of slavery in the United States.
