10h 46min, sep 22, 1862 y - Emancipation Proclamation

Description:

The Emancipation Proclamation was an order by president Lincoln to free all slaves in the Confederate territories and achieve a moral victory. This was significant because of the fight over the balance between slave and free states during the American Civil War, and it led the way to complete abolition of slavery in the United States.
