False. The bloodiest single day of the Civil War was the Battle of Antietam, which took place on September 17, 1862, resulting in about 22,000 casualties. However, the overall bloodiest battle in terms of total casualties was the Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863.

What battle was a major turning point in the civil war for the north?

Historians and military experts in modern times have successfully debunked the idea that any single battle, including the battles of Antietam and Gettysburg were turning points in the US Civil War. A turning point can be described as a situation whereby the end results of a war, for example, is seen as the significant point by which the end of the war is a for gone conclusion.The fact is that the Battle of Antietam was a technical draw. This is a military determination. If Antietam had been a turning point then there would have been no Battle of Gettysburg.Gettysburg itself was a defeated raid by the Army of Northern Virginia. General Lee's army was allowed to escape and carry on the war for almost another two years.The General in Chief of Union forces, Henry Wager Halleck, feared that late in the Summer of 1863, the North was still at risk for another Southern assault into Northern territory.Vicksburg is yet another false turning point as the Confederacy had already adjusted itself for its eventual capture. After the South lost New Orleans, the South's high military command had already adjusted to the eventual fall of Vicksburg.If there can be points that prolonged the war, most historians will cite the three first failed Union attempts to capture Richmond as "turning points" that prolonged the war.

True or false president Lincoln issued the emancipation proclamation before the start of the civil war?

False, he issued it in the Fall of 1862 after the Union victory at Antietam. An additional point is that the Emancipation Proclamation did not "free the slaves". All the document did was to "free the slaves" in the states in rebellion. While to many this may seem to be one in the same, it is actually not. There were still three slave states in the Union during the course of the war. In the context of the proclamation, the Confederate campaign that was halted at Antietam was called the Maryland Campaign. It was the Confederate goal to bring the slave state of Maryland into the Confederacy.
