The Battle of Gettybury is a significant battle during the US Civil War. The North stopped the second major invasion by the South which was led by their best general Robert Lee. With that invasion stopped, the North began to turn the following battles against the South and eventually won the Civil War. It was also one of the bloodiest battles during the war - including both sides, a total of over fifty thousands soldiers were killed.
