The battle of New Orleans between the United States and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, which occurred between December 23, 1814 and January 8, 1815, was the greatest battle of the Anglo-American War of 1812.
At the end of 1814 a British fleet of more than 50 ships sent by the general Edward Pakenham, sailed to the interior of the Gulf of Mexico and prepared to attack New Orleans. The American general Andrew Jackson, commander of the North American army that was in the southwest of the country, had composed his regiment mainly of militiamen and volunteers, with which he fought against the British who suddenly attacked his position on January 8, 1815. The troops of Jackson effectively barricaded himself behind the fortifications, while the English hosts were exposed, the struggle being brief and ending in a decisive victory for the Americans, thus achieving the British withdrawal and the death of General Pakenham.
The battle may be considered extemporaneous since the Treaty of Ghent, which ended the war, had been signed last December, but the report had been slow to arrive. The victory nevertheless raised the national morale, improving the reputation of Jackson to the level of a hero, that served as platform for his way to the presidency.

The Sharpeville demonstration of 1960, also known as the Sharpeville Massacre, occurred in Sharpeville, South Africa, as a result of a protest against pass laws, which were basically a set of legislations that were designed to segregate the population into blacks and whites.
About 7000 protesters gathered at a police station, and the police officers panicked, accidentally setting off their firearms. The grim result was that 69 people were killed and many more were injured.

Answer:
The Emancipation Proclamation was a set of two orders issued by President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War. The first was issued on September 22, 1862, declaring all slaves in all Confederate states not returning to the Union before January 1, 1863, free. The second order, issued on January 1, 1863, listed the states for which it was specifically concerned.
The Emancipation Proclamation was attacked from many sides because it released only slaves who were out of reach of the Union. In practice, it obliged the Union to end slavery, which was a controversial decision in the North States.
After the war, the abolitionists were concerned that the proclamation was an act of war and would not permanently abolish slavery. Several former slave states passed legislation prohibiting slavery, but slavery continued to exist until a sufficient number of states ratified the 13th Amendment to the Constitution on December 18, 1865.
