The Fourteenth Amendment (Amendment XIV) to the United States Constitution is one of the post-Civil War Reconstruction Amendments, first intended to secure the rights of former slaves. It was proposed on June 13, 1866, and ratified on July 9, 1868
14th Amendment
the civil war amendments can be classified as the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments. The 13th abolished slavery nation wide, the 14th gave slaves citizenship, and the 15th gave slaves voting rights (but only for males over 21)
The 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868, included provisions that prohibited individuals who had engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States, such as those who fought for the Confederacy in the Civil War, from holding public office. Specifically, Section 3 of the amendment disqualified these individuals from serving in Congress or holding any civil or military office.
The adoption of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments after the Civil War led to significant changes in American society and law. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery, granting freedom to millions of enslaved individuals. The 14th Amendment established citizenship and equal protection under the law for all born or naturalized in the U.S., particularly benefiting former slaves. The 15th Amendment aimed to secure voting rights for African American men, though implementation faced numerous challenges, leading to ongoing struggles for civil rights.
The 13th amendment had a big part in freeing the slaves. The civil war had a even bigger part
