Lincoln states that "the world will little note nor long remember what we say here..." but the opposite was true. His short address inspired the war-weary North with its succinct summation of the need to win the war and keep the republic intact.
He wasn't.
Franklin proved the understanding of DNA was wrong through a number of scientific experiments.
Supposedly the speech was written on the train Mr. Lincoln was riding to the dedication ceremony where he delivered it. That would have been November, 1863.Contrary to the myth that Lincoln wrote this on the back of an envelope on November 18, 1863 while on the train traveling to Gettysburg, the speech was actually first written while he was still in Washington prior to leaving on the train. He put the finishing touches on the speech the night before while spending the night in his host's house.
No. It applied only to states that had seceded from the Union, leaving slavery untouched in states like Maryland and Delaware. Maryland might have seceded from the Union and joined the Confederacy, but President Lincoln sent Federal troops into the Maryland statehouse and prevented the legislature from voting. Also, the Emancipation Proclamation expressly exempted areas in slave states that had already come under Northern control. So, the slaves in those areas had to remain slaves. Further, the Emancipation Proclamation had no effect on slaves in states controlled by Confederate forces.
Gettysburg was important because it was very influential, and led to the result of the civil war. And it was one of the bloodiest battles in the history of the united states. Hope this helps youu! Comment if im wrong.

I just answered it... Gettysburg Address, Lincoln still spelt wrong.
I am not sure about the sinifiance of it. But the battle of Gettysburg was a horrendous tragedy. it was one of the worst battles in history. Any way.... the Gettysburg address was given I believe a couple days after the battle. I might be wrong so you might want to google it. Glad I could help!!
I might be wrong.... but I believe he dedicated it to the soldiers who died, the soldiers who fought, the horrendous tragedy, or the people of Gettysburg. I hope my input helps you!
Eratosthenes proved the world is flat theory wrong
If a fact is proved wrong, it is called a misconception or misinformation.
He led the Army of the Potomac after Fredericksburg and before Gettysburg. He proved a better organiser and motivator than expected, but was wrong-footed by the Lee-Jackson team in their last and greatest battle at Chancellorsville.
because they were proved wrong by other scientists.
When one makes a proclamation or statement as a true fact, and it is later proved to be wrong, they are said to "eat their words" - they have been humbled by their error.
