Robert E. Lee threatened the Union by leading the Confederate Army into the North during the American Civil War, most notably through his invasion of Maryland in 1862, which culminated in the Battle of Antietam. This campaign aimed to gain support for the Confederacy from border states and foreign nations, potentially tipping the balance of power. His actions raised the stakes of the war and heightened tensions, ultimately leading to significant battles on Union soil.
