Abraham Lincoln's promise to the nation was to prevent any Southern states from seceding.

Explanation:

At first, Lincoln focused on the military and political dimensions of the conflict. His main objective was to preserve the unity of the nation, for which he closely supervised the war effort, especially the selection of the generals who would lead the army, including his best man on the battlefield, Ulysses S. Grant. In addition, the president made important decisions in the war strategy of the Union, including a naval blockade that prevented the southern states for trading, movements to take control of Kentucky and Tennessee and the use of gunboats to dominate the waterways from the south. Lincoln tried repeatedly to conquer the Confederate capital in Richmond, a mission he commissioned successive generals until Grant succeeded.
