The Gettysburg Address is a speech by Abraham Lincoln on November 19, 1863, during the American Civil War at the dedication ceremony for the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The cemetery was created to bury Union soldiers who died in the Battle of Gettysburg.

Lincoln acknowledged the soldiers' sacrifice and consecrated the cemetery. He emphasized that the Civil War was a test of whether a nation "conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal" could endure. He urged his listeners to be dedicated to the cause of preserving the Union and continuing the struggle for liberty and equality.

Lincoln expressed his hope that the dedication of the cemetery would serve as a reminder of the sacrifice made by the fallen soldiers and inspire those who remained to continue the struggle for liberty and equality. He concluded with the famous lines, "that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

The Gettysburg Address is a powerful tribute to the sacrifice of the soldiers who fought in the Civil War and a call to action for those who remained to continue the struggle for liberty and equality. It remains a defining moment in the nation's history.
