The war at Gettysburg was one of the goriest battle's in The Civil War. An there was a meeting with the town people about getting rid of all of the dead bodies. The Gettysburg Address was a speech from Abraham Lincoln. He was talking about everyone that died in this war were honorable men. His speech was only two minutes long but it was very powerful and moving. He also talked about the slaves down in the south were free.The greatest thing that you can do in life is to die for country. This political speech that Abe Lincoln made did change our nation in that he wasn't talking about the Confederates and the Union but talking about how we are a whole nation.
The Gettysburg Address did change our nation. Because Abraham Lincoln said that we should honor all of the brave men. Who died at this battle between the Confederates and the Union. I think this speech did change the United States in that the Civil War was finally over. And that the slaves down in the south are now free. Lincoln also said in his speech "that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom." He is saying that America is going to start over. And start a new beginning as a whole nation with america having their freedom.
