Which flag was the last to fly over SLAVE STATES? The Stars And Bars or The Stars And Stripes?
Five Slave States stayed in the UNION. Most did not end SLAVERY till EIGHT MONTHS after the end of the Civil War with the passage of the 13th Amendment.
The North didn’t go to war to free the slaves. It went to war to preserve the Union and won. The South went to war to preserve slavery and lost everything.
