Answer;

Gettysburg

-The Battle of Gettysburg

Explanation;

-The Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, is considered the most important engagement of the American Civil War. After a great victory over Union forces at Chancellorsville, General Robert E. Lee marched his Army of Northern Virginia into Pennsylvania in late June 1863.

-This battle was the bloodiest battle of the Civil War and the largest one ever fought on American soil, involving around 75,000 Confederate soldiers and 85,000 soldiers on the Union’s side.

-The battle had around 51,000 casualties and started out as a bit of a chance encounter, even though Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee planned on attacking the Union at a later stage in order to try and invade the North.

-The battle ended up a huge loss for the Confederates, who never attempted to go North again, which is why Gettysburg is seen as a turning point for the Civil War.
