Answer:

In Lincoln's view, the result that would mean that the soldiers who died at Gettysburg did not die in vain was:

The preservation of the Union (the US) as a nation, human liberty and equality, and democracy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Abraham Lincoln delivered the "The Gettysburg Address " at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania on November 19, 1863, during a dedication ceremony in remembrance of the soldiers who lost their lives following the decisive battle at Gettysburg. At Gettysburg, both the Confederate army and the Union army suffered unquantifiable casualties. He affirmed that the great civil war tested whether the nation could endure for a long time.
