it extended the abolitionists’ power to operate the underground railroad.
it gave african americans the right to fight in the war.

Explanation:

The Emancipation Proclamation made the Civil - War more about ending slavery. European countries, which had already abolished or were against slavery, were less likely to support the Confederacy. Also, it allowed African Americans to enlist and fight in the Union army, increasing the Union's manpower. The southern states had already seceded before the Proclamation, and the Underground Railroad was mainly active before the Proclamation and not directly extended by it.

Answer:

It decreased the likelihood that European countries would help the Confederacy.
It gave African Americans the right to fight in the war.
