Abraham Lincoln's Election and his role he played in The Civil War

Abraham's Lincoln Election was a big election for everyone. It was very important too. It was known as one of the biggest events that led to the four year civil war. He made many changes and signed what is called The Emancipation Proclamation. The Emancipation Proclamation was a bill that proclaimed the freedom of 3.1 million of America's 4 million slaves. The south did not agree with this at all. In fact, later on when the Civil war was coming to a close a man named John Wilkes Booth shot Abraham Lincoln in the head on April 14th, 1865. This was just 5 days before Robert E. Lee surrendered his worn out army to Ulysses S. Grant. Abraham Lincoln was the first president to be assassinated although there was an unsuccessful attempt on Andrew Jackson in 1835. The winners were both because The Union won, but with the cost of a great president. Abraham Lincoln also created the most famous quotes in the nation... Here are some photos:
