1865, 1868...no difference there at all. Almost as long as we had a government of our own, but really, no big deal. What'sa three year error between friends?
Y'all excuse me for the remainder of the day, I'll be puking.
you HAD a goverment, at war with another goverment who had a proclomation freeing slaves if they escaped lands governed by your goverments, or when those lands where lost. a war powers act that did not need congress. At the same time Lincoln started the process that would free the slaves in United states (and territories) which of course took longer do to being an act of congress.
