The South in the Civil War used a war of attrition strategy by attempting to prolong the conflict and inflict heavy casualties on the Union forces. They aimed to wear down the morale and resources of the North, hoping that the cost of continuing the war would become unsustainable for the Union. The South's goal was to exhaust the will and capabilities of the North to continue fighting, in order to secure a favorable outcome for their cause.
