What time period did they free the slaves?
In the US on January 1,1863, President Lincoln issued the famous Emancipation Proclamation. This document officially freed the slaves in the states that had rebelled against the US government. It probably took some time before the slave-owners actually left them go. Slaves in the states that were loyal to the Union were not set free by this proclamation but were freed at various times by action of the various state legislatures.
What happened when slavery ended?
Slavery ended in the US and was officially abolished under the 13th Amendment to the US Constitution, ratified in 1865. Unfortunately, this left most freed slaves without employment or sustenance, and many became sharecroppers on the former plantations.
How was the thirteenth Amendment different from the Emancipation Proclamation?
The Proclamation only freed slaves in territory then in rebellion. Slavery remained legal in territory recaptured from the Confederacy prior to the Proclamation, and in states that never left the Union, such as Maryland and Kentucky. The 13th Amendment applies to all the US, thus eliminating the impact of court decisions such as the Dread Scott Decision. In addition to abolishing slavery in the entire country it explicitly conferred citizenship rights on all former slaves, something the Proclamation did not address.
What do you think would have happened if Abraham Lincoln had waited until after the civil war to issue the emancipation proclamation?
The main purpose of issuing the Emancipation Proclamation was international propaganda, as it had no actual effect in either the north or the south as written. It freed no slaves in northern slave states still loyal to the Union and although it declared the slaves to be free in those states then in rebellion against the Union there was no means available to enforce it. Thus all slaves prior to the Emancipation Proclamation still remained in slavery after it. Only after the Civil War was over did Union soldiers have the ability to enforce the Emancipation Proclamation in the south. The slaves in the northern states that did not rebel still remained slaves until the Thirteenth Amendment completely abolished slavery (as the Emancipation Proclamation explicitly left them slaves to prevent having those states rebel too during the Civil War).
Where did Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves?
He was not inaugurated till 1861, and his first action was to keep the Northern slave-states from joining the Confederacy. He had to be diplomatic with these states, and certainly wasn't about to offend them by freeing their slaves. Even when he issued the Emancipation Proclamation, he left these states out of the provisions. Remember that Lincoln was not passionately anti-slavery. Like most Northerners, he was mainly against the extension of slavery into the new territories, and it was his refusal to agree to this that sparked the war.
How did the emancipation proclamation affect the south social life?
It helped the slaves be free. Most of them had freedom. Not in all states, though, but for those that were, they left and went to do the things that were aproved to do. Most Black slaves weren't able to attend to the Army forces, only whites, however, most went into it because they could.
