Three pivotal battles that helped turn the tide of the American Civil War were the Battle of Gettysburg, the Battle of Vicksburg, and the Battle of Antietam. Gettysburg, fought in July 1863, marked a significant defeat for the Confederacy, halting their invasion of the North. Vicksburg, also in July 1863, gave the Union control of the Mississippi River, effectively splitting the Confederacy. Antietam, fought in September 1862, was the bloodiest single-day battle in American history and provided President Lincoln the political capital to issue the Emancipation Proclamation.
