He was born to poverty in a small log cabin in Hodgenville, Kentucky, and he soon began studying to be a lawyer by himself. He continued to progress further in politics until he became the country's president for the Republican Party. During the American Civil War in which several states seceded to become the Confederacy, largely due to them wanting to keep and preserve slavery, he opposed them as the leader of the United States. During the course of the war, he issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, declaring the freedom and liberty of all slaves in the Confederacy.
