Best Answer

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.

If anything it was that our founding fathers believed all men to be created equal, yet some of those same men owned slaves.

Was the Gettysburg Address written in Gettysburg?

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.


Did the Gettysburg Address really end slavery?

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.

What is the meaning of 'empirically wrong'?

Well, sweetheart, when something is described as "empirically wrong," it means that it has been proven to be incorrect based on evidence and observations. In simpler terms, it's basically a fancy way of saying, "Yep, that's definitely not right." So, if someone tells you that 2 + 2 = 5, you can confidently say that's empirically wrong because, well, math.
