        It abolished slavery in the southern states that suceded from the union. However, it only effected those states, it did nothing to those slave holding states that had stayed in the union, Missourri, Maryland, Delaware, and Kentucky. It was the 13th amendment that finally abolished slavery in the entire country in 1865,
