States in the south that fought with the north during the Civil War. The Confederates wanted slavery, but the Union, or the North, was against it.
Did the Emancipation Proclamation started the US Civil War?
No, it was Lincoln's somewhat desperate tactic for keeping Britain and France from sending aid to the Confederates. The Proclamation turned the war into an official crusade against slavery, so any foreign powers that supported the Confederates would then be seen as pro-slavery themselves.

they resulted in a victory against the confederates, they got the united states abolished from slavery, and the United States was a whole again.
