The answer is the Thirteenth Amendment. This abolished slavery and involuntary servitude. Earlier President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation that declared the slaves free. This was made possible through a string of victories that supported this amendment and victory of the Union led to the abolition of slavery in the entire country.
