After the election of
Abraham Lincoln in 1860, the state of Florida seceded from the United
States, and within a month had become a one of the founding members of
the Confederate States of America. Throughout the Civil War, Florida
played an important role as the main supplier of food and other goods
for the Confederate soldiers, as it's vast coastline made it difficult
for the Union troops to block movements. The state saw only one major
battle, the Battle of Olustee, though there were a few minor skirmishes
throughout the war. On May 20th, 1865, the Emancipation Proclamation was
read during a ceremony in Tallahassee - thus ending slavery in the
state. It was re-admitted to the Union on July 25, 1868. |
