Despite that expansive wording, the Emancipation Proclamation was limited in many ways. It applied only to states that had seceded from the Union, leaving slavery untouched in the loyal border states.

By the end of the war, almost 200,000 black soldiers and sailors had fought for the Union and freedom.
