Answer:

Reunify both sides and emancipation of proclamation

Step-by-step explanation:

The end of the Civil War saw the beginning of the Reconstruction era, when former rebel Southern states were integrated back into the Union. President Lincoln moved quickly to achieve the war's ultimate goal: reunification of the country.

What were Lincoln's three main purposes in issuing the Emancipation Proclamation? 1) To keep Britain from recognizing the South by appealing to the strong British antislavery feeling. 2) To encourage blacks to join the war effort and fight for the Union.
