Wrong....the some of the border states did not free the slaves until late 1865 with the 13th amendment. States that had never been under anything but Union authority.
Saudi Arabia did not outlaw chattel slavery until 1960.
And slavery continues today as you know trans Saharan.
You Yankees screw the pooch same as anybody else...only thing is....you think you're better at it..lol

It was first thigs first after the war. If southern politicians hadn't fought so hard for institution of slavery, it probably would've been outlawed in the 1700s.
