Battle of Antietam:
Important battle of the American Civil War. The Battle of Antietam was the bloodiest one-day battle in all of United States history. It was one of the most important battles of the Civil War because the Confederate defeat led General Robert E. Lee to abandon temporarily his plans for an invasion of the North and because it discouraged both Britain and France from coming to the aid of the Confederacy.
