Answer:

Gettysburg Address: On November 19, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln delivered remarks, which later became known as the Gettysburg Address, at the official dedication ceremony for the National Cemetery of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania, on the site of one of the bloodiest and most decisive battles of the Civil War. Though he was not the featured orator that day, Lincoln’s brief address would be remembered as one of the most important speeches in American history. In it, he invoked the principles of human equality contained in the Declaration of Independence and connected the sacrifices of the Civil War with the desire for “a new birth of freedom,” as well as the all-important preservation of the Union created in 1776 and its ideal of self-government.

President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, as the nation approached its third year of bloody civil war. The proclamation declared "that all persons held as slaves" within the rebellious states "are, and henceforward shall be free."

Summarize how rome defeated hannibal.
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Hannibal made one major tactical error: He did not attack and capture Rome when he had the opportunity.

Hannibal conducted his operations in Italy not as one campaign in a larger war but as the only campaign in the only war. He seemed to hold to the conviction that if he won enough battles, he would win Italy. And if he won Italy, victory over the Roman people would be his. Battles are the means to a strategic end, not ends in themselves. Hannibal was a sworn enemy of the Romans and he let his emotions cloud out that fact when he launched the second Punic War. He could win every battle, but he did not apply those battles to wining the war.

There seemed to be some confusion between tactics and strategy in his mind. This caused him to commit a number of operational failures that led to his eventual defeat in Romes heartland.

The Carthaginian senate had failed to send him critical supplies and troops when most needed. He had severe logistical problems. Tactics win battles, logistics win wars. There was no good reason why supply transports could not have gotten through to Hannibal.

Moronically, Carthage’s strategic shift away from Italy after Cannae came at a time when Hannibal’s momentum was at its full. Cannae was an absolutely devastating defeat for the Romans. Politics.

Hannibal was eventually called back to Carthage because of the military failures of his compatriots. The Romans had pushed into Carthaginian territory, and they needed reinforcements.
