Explanation:

1. Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which freed enslaved people in Confederate states, and pushed for the 13th Amendment to end slavery nationwide. The other options are incorrect: France was not declared war on by Lincoln, the Constitution was written before his time, and Alaska was purchased under Andrew Johnson.
2. The Emancipation Proclamation, issued in 1863, applied only to enslaved people in areas controlled by the Confederacy. The other options are unrelated: women's suffrage came later, WWI ended decades after, and the Supreme Court was established in 1789.
3. Susan B. Anthony was a leading figure in the women's suffrage movement, advocating for women's right to vote and broader gender equality. The other options are incorrect: she did not fight in the Civil War, was not the first female senator, and did not write the Bill of Rights.
4. The Korean War was fought by the U.S. from 1950-1953, which is in the 1900s. The Revolutionary War, Spanish-American War, and Civil War all took place before 1900.
5. Woodrow Wilson served as U.S. President from 1913-1921, covering the period of World War I (1914-1918). The other presidents were in office during different eras.
