    Tips

    At one point in the military cemetery, Abraham Lincoln gave his famous 'Gettysburg Address' speech. It's one of the most famous speeches of all time!! It starts like this:



    "Eighty-seven years ago, on this continent, our fathers founded a new nation, conceived in freedom and dedicated to the principle that all men are created equal.

    Now we are in a great civil war, which is a test of whether this or any other nation so begotten and consecrated to such principles can endure. We have gathered on a great battlefield of this war." ..( Translated in Wikipedia)



    The political consequence was the abolition of slavery.
