Slavery ended in and with the Civil War both because slaves sought their own freedom and because the Union Army demonstrated that the Confederate government could not make good on its promise to protect the property rights whites held in slavery.
After the War Most of the African American men who fought in the war did receive their freedom as promised. However, they soon found out that the freedom and equality they had fought for did not apply to African Americans. Slavery continued in the United States for over 80 years after the Revolutionary War ended.
