Answer:
The South came very close to winning the first two days.
Explanation:
General Lee had come so close to winning the day before that he sent Pickett and his men on a charge( known as Pickett's Charge). The union open fired on the charge and then New York, Ohio, and Vermont regiments flanked them on both sides. Most of the confederates were wiped out. Including 2/3 of Pickett's division.
When comparing and contrasting an ancient government with the current US government I would recommend looking at the government of Ancient Athens, since Athens had a democracy like the US, except theirs was a "direct democracy," instead of a "representative" democracy--which would make this a good comparison point.
The Union Army's strategy at the Battle of Antietam was to keep the army intact to avoid being flanked by the Confederacy.
<h3>What did the Union do at the Battle of Antietam?</h3><h3 />
At the Battle of Antietam, the Union Army knew that the Confederates would attempt to flank them by dividing their army. They knew this because they had found out General Lee's plans in advance.
As a result, the Union Commander, Gen. George B. McClellan, kept the army intact while trying to attack the flanks of the enemy. General Lee then attacked with all his force thinking that the Union would see this and fall back.
The Union responded by standing their ground and driving back the Confederate army. The strength of this strategy was that it won the battle for the Union. A limitation was that it cost many lives.

1. Many make the argument that Richard Nixon was the last "liberal" Republican president, considering opening up of trade and signing into law massive environmental policies.
2. Many consider FDR to be the moment that the Democratic party switched from a more agrarian conservative party to the modern "liberal" party that it is today. As I mentioned with your other question, this occurred after Progressives that had split after Teddy Roosevelt last found their new home in the Democratic party. A similar drift would occur as Richard Nixon used the Southern Strategy to peel southern Democrats away and towards the new Republican party
3. Many consider Ronald Reagan to be the first true modern conservative President. Reagan embraced many of the tenets of the failed Goldwater presidential run and is still hailed as the gold standard for Conservative presidents.
4. Many consider Lyndon Johnson to be our most reliably liberal presidents. Johnson took the New Deal programs and expanded them with his "War on Poverty" but his legacy was ultimately complicated by the war in Vietnam.
