1. The Battle of Gettysburg was a significant event during the American Civil War as it marked a turning point in favor of the Union. It took place from July 1 to July 3, 1863, in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. This battle is often considered the bloodiest battle of the Civil War, with a high number of casualties on both sides. The Union Army, under the command of General George Meade, was able to defeat General Robert E. Lee's Confederate Army, preventing Lee's invasion of the North. This victory at Gettysburg lifted Union morale and demonstrated that the Confederacy was not invincible.
2. The surrender of General Robert E. Lee at Appomattox Court House in Virginia on April 9, 1865, effectively ended the American Civil War. After a series of battles and campaigns, Lee realized that further resistance was futile and he surrendered to General Ulysses S. Grant. The surrender at Appomattox Court House signified the surrender of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia, one of the most formidable forces of the Confederacy. This event marked the beginning of the end of the Civil War and led to the eventual reunification of the United States.
