    Abraham Lincoln's Gettysbury Address is perhaps the most iconic and famous speeches in the history of the United States.

    It the address took place just 4 and a half months after the end of the Civil War, at the time when the United States was struggling to find a national way forward.

    The aim of the Address was to provide hope to the American people and give them a vision of a brighter future. It was addressed both at the Southerners and the people in the North.

    A whole generation had seen war, death and misery and the future for many, was not so great.

    The overall message of the address was to tell every American, that their right to life, liberty and freedom will be respected and that their country will keep on prospering.

    The address wanted people to look at the end of the Civil War as an opportunity for a New America.

    The main theme of the speech was to demystify the American civil war to a country that had just crept out of war and its misery. Lincoln message was that of hope, and restoration of American spirit and reinstatement of the fundamental principles of the American nation such as liberties and freedoms.
