Answer:

The correct answer is B. The Emancipation Proclamation didn't prompt England and France to recognize the Confederacy.

Explanation:

The Emancipation Proclamation was an Executive Order proclaimed by President Abraham Lincoln in 1862 (and entered into force in 1863) that declared the slaves in rebellious southern states and territories forever free.

The war was a struggle for the preservation of the Union after the southern states had separated. The morale in the south was initially high. People thought they were fighting for his independence and his own way of life. The right of individual states to set their own laws (including the right to keep slaves) was central. Although initially President Lincoln was also hesitant about the complete abolition of slavery, he changed his mind during the course of the war. He was convinced that slavery had to be abolished in order to win the war: the great powers from Europe, Great Britain and France, were against slavery. With the abolition of slavery he would get their approval. In addition, Great Britain was the largest buyer of cotton in the South. Britain could therefore recognize the Confederacy or even take the South side, and that would be fatal for the North.

This eventually resulted in the abolition of slavery in the rebellious Confederate States of America.
