question 8 of 10
what was a result of the battle of antietam?
a. the confederate troops had an important victory.
b. the confederate and union forces called for peace.
c. the southern army was blocked from entering the north.
d. president lincoln led the union troops.

Explanation:

The Battle of Antietam was a significant battle in the American Civil War. It was not a clear - cut victory for the Confederates (so A is wrong). There was no joint call for peace by both sides after this battle (so B is wrong). President Lincoln did not lead the Union troops into battle; he was the commander - in - chief but not on the battlefield (so D is wrong). The battle effectively blocked the Southern army (Confederate) from further incursions into the North.

Answer:

C. The Southern army was blocked from entering the North.
