Answer:

Lincoln emphasizes nationaly unity in his frist sentence and in his last. He says that our nation was created so that all men could be equal, that we stood for liberty. He closses his speech by saying that the deaths of those who died on that field would not be in vain, that he was resolved to unite the nation once again. He is saying he will not stop till it is one nation, under God shall forever be one nation
