Explanation:

The Battle of Gettysburg occurred in July 1863. It was a major Union victory and a turning - point in the Civil War. The other options are incorrect: there was no significant battle of Charleston in this context; the Union won at Gettysburg (not lost); and the Battle of Richmond (in the Civil War context) was not a decisive defeat for the Confederacy in July 1863.

Answer:

A. Confederacy defeated at the Battle of Gettysburg
