Answer 2

Answer:

The Emancipation did not apply to states under Union military control.

Explanation:

The Emancipation Proclamation was a law drafted on September 22, 1862 by the President of the United States Abraham Lincoln and entered into force on January 1, 1863, abolishing slavery throughout the Confederate territory still in Civil War.

At the time of its ratification, the Proclamation freed a minimum number of slaves, but as the Union annexed the Confederate territories, it paved the way for the total abolition of slavery on American territory. Slavery became illegal through the approval of the 13th Constitutional Amendment, a fact that occurred in 1865.

The law was severely criticized in the southern states, whose economic activity was based on slave labor. However, adherence of this measure to all Confederate states ensured Lincoln's main focus: strengthening Union ties.
