Abraham Lincoln rid the world of African slavery by winning the Civil War against the south in the 1800s and outlawing slavery.
Addendum: Lincoln only wrote an order called the Emancipation Proclamation which promised freedom to Slaves from certain Confederate States who could make it to the Union in the North.
Slavery was finally abolished in the North by Congress Dec.6th, 1865 after the Civil War. Until then Slavery existed both in the Union North and in the Confederate South.

SteveAbraham Lincoln didn't actually end slavery in all states. He issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, which led to the abolishment of slavery later on when he was assassinated. The Emancipation Proclamation led the Union to Victory because freed slaves were allowed to join the union army. (Look up: the 13th amendment which actually ended slavery for good.)
The final executive order of the Emancipation Proclamation, only freed slaves in the areas of the Confederacy that had not already returned to Union/federal control by January 1863.
The thirteenth Amendment. abolished and outlawed slavery, throughout the US. It was ratified by 3/4 of the states in December of 1865, though it had passed both Houses, and was signed by President Lincoln, on February 1, 1865.
US President Abraham Lincoln did not abolish slavery. He did use the Emancipation Proclamation to free slaves where the Union armies occupied a slave holding plantation. This had no effect on the Union states that had slaves. The 13th amendment to the US Constitution in December of 1865 abolished slavery in the US.
