The Battle of Gettysburg :)

Step-by-step explanation:
After a year of defensive victories in Virginia, Lee’s objective was to win a battle north of the Mason-Dixon line in the hopes of forcing a negotiated end to the fighting. Lee lost. It was a Union Victory. The loss there dashed hopes of the Confederate States of America to become an independent nation.
