No actually Abraham Lincoln did. Julius Caesar didn't free slaves. If you check in the Harcourt 5th grade edition, look in the index and look for Civil War. Then when you find that look at the page number and go to those pages. When you get to the first page of the Civil War section read it until the end and see that Abe Lincoln freed the slaves.

Here's a little expansion on the above answer. Although everything in the answer is correct, it's in the wrong time period. Our category is Roman history, not American history. Yes, Julius Caesar, like all Romans, did free slaves. Remember, there was a great difference between ancient slavery and American slavery.

In fact in the Rome of Julius Caesar's day, slavery was not only common, but was the backbone of the economy. Everyone had slaves, including Caesar. Caesar may have freed some of his slaves in his will, as such a practice was very common (so much so that Caesar's nephew and heir, Augustus, restricted the practice), but he certainly did not take any steps to abolish slavery in the Roman Empire, which would have been a social catastrophe.
