The campaign to sieze Vicksburg took place over a four state area around Vicksburg, Mississippi (Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi).
The City of Vicksburg, Mississippi was founded along the banks of the Mississippi River in 1611. It later was heavily involved in the US Civil War as a state within the Confederacy.
It was won by the United States, and lost by the Confederate States. Vicksburg was the last Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi. Its loss ended the war in the West, and enabled Grant to proceed to Chattanooga and reinforce the Army of the Cumberland. It gave him high credibility, resulting in his appointment as General-in-Chief of the Union armies a few months later.
The US state of Rhode Island, the smallest of the 50 states, has an area of 1,545.05 square miles.
