Question 9

The Emancipation Proclamation was issued during the Civil War. The South was in rebellion, so the proclamation couldn't be immediately enforced there. In the North, while it was a moral boost, the immediate practical effect was limited as most enslaved people were in the South. So the immediate effect was very little.

Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, during the American Civil War, to declare the freedom of enslaved people in Confederate - held territory.

Answer:

A. There was very little immediate effect.
