Abraham Lincoln took office as the 16th President of the United States on March 4, 1861, following his election in November 1860. He succeeded James Buchanan and became a pivotal figure in American history, particularly due to his leadership during the Civil War and his efforts to abolish slavery. Lincoln's presidency was marked by significant challenges, including secession of Southern states and the preservation of the Union. His legacy is largely defined by the Emancipation Proclamation and the eventual passage of the 13th Amendment.
