Answer:

The purpose of the Gettysburg Address was:

B. to refocus the war effort on the idea that the Union fought for the American principles of freedom and democracy

Explanation:

None of the options provided describes the simplest, yet main purpose of the Address given by Abraham Lincoln. Primarily speaking, the Address's purpose was to dedicate a plot of land to the fallen soldiers, i.e. the soldiers who died fighting in the Civil War to maintain America united. But we can also mention letter B as a secondary purpose. Lincoln wanted to inspire his audience to keep on fighting. According to him, the fallen soldiers died for the American ideals of freedom and democracy. To honor their death, they should keep on fighting until victory was achieved.

<em>It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.</em>
