The phrase "fourscore and seven years ago" refers to the time frame of 87 years prior to the date of Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, delivered on November 19, 1863. This places the event in question around 1776, when the United States declared its independence from Great Britain. Lincoln used this phrase to evoke the founding principles of the nation and to emphasize the ongoing struggle for freedom and equality during the Civil War.
