The Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 was a pivotal moment in American history, as it declared the freedom of all enslaved people in Confederate-held territories. This executive order by President Abraham Lincoln transformed the Civil War's purpose from just preserving the Union to also encompassing the fight against slavery. It also allowed for the enlistment of African American soldiers in the Union Army, bolstering its numbers and contributing to the eventual Union victory. Ultimately, it laid the groundwork for the eventual abolition of slavery in the United States with the 13th Amendment.
