Battle of Antietam - Bloodiest Day in American History and 25 Interesting Facts
The Battle of Antietam is one of the most significant battles of the American Civil War and of American history. This battle resulted when General Robert E. Lee took his army into the North for the first time. The second invasion of the North would occur a year later (1863) during the Gettysburg Campaign.
Prior to the battle, Union soldiers had clashed with the Army of Northern Virginia at the Battle of Second Bull Run. This was a resounding victory for General Robert E. Lee and his Confederate army. The Battle of Antietam began when the Army of the Potomac under George B. McClellan met the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia at Sharpsburg, Maryland. The battle would rage for one day and would result in the deadliest day of the American Civil War and of American history.
In the aftermath of the battle President Abraham Lincoln issued his famous Emancipation Proclamation. Lincoln had been waiting for a Union victory to issues this order. While the battle was not an outright victory for the Union, it was a tactical victory as they held the field. This was enough for Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. The Emancipation Proclamation prevented France and Great Britain from joining the Confederacy and aiding them by making the war truly about slavery.
