Quatr.us > America > People > Reconstruction. April 2016 - During the Civil War, in 1863 AD, President Lincoln announced the end of slavery. When the North won the war, in 1865, Congress and the states voted to change the Constitution to make slavery illegal, so all the people who were slaves in the South became free. Some people chose to leave the plantations, now that they were free.
The history of how these countries ended slavery is an interesting comparison to the American Civil War, for in the vast majority of cases emancipation was the result of largely-peaceful, gradual processes of legislation, compensation and persuasion.etween the beginning of the nineteenth century and the outbreak of the Civil War, at least 15 countries in Europe and Central and South America abolished slavery or put it on the path to extinction.
