Which of the following explain how the Emancipation Proclamation helped the Union win the Civil War. Choose all that apply.

Question

The Emancipation Proclamation helped provide guns and ammunition to northern soldiers.

The Emancipation Proclamation disrupted the southern slavery-based workforce.

The Emancipation Proclamation allowed African Americans soldiers to fight in the northern army.

Answer 1

The following statements explain how the Emancipation Proclamation helped the Union win the Civil War:

1. The Emancipation Proclamation disrupted the southern slavery-based workforce. - By freeing enslaved people in the Confederate states, the Proclamation undermined the economic foundation of the South, disrupting their agricultural production and labor force.

2. The Emancipation Proclamation allowed African American soldiers to fight in the northern army. - It authorized the enlistment of African American soldiers into the Union Army, boosting the number of troops and contributing to the Union's war efforts.

The statement about providing guns and ammunition is not correct; the Emancipation Proclamation did not directly provide weapons to northern soldiers.
