What battle contributed to General Grant and Union troops taking control of the entire Mississippi River'?

The Battle of Vicksburg, fought from May 18 to July 4, 1863, was pivotal in allowing General Ulysses S. Grant and Union troops to gain control of the entire Mississippi River. The Union's successful siege led to the surrender of the Confederate stronghold at Vicksburg, Mississippi, effectively splitting the Confederacy in two and enabling Union forces to control vital supply routes. This victory, combined with the earlier capture of New Orleans, solidified Union dominance over the Mississippi River.


Why was Northern success in siege of Vicksburg important?

Northern success in the Siege of Vicksburg was important because the Union had a plan called the anaconda plan. The anaconda plan is when the Union planned to cut the Confederacy in half. By doing this, the Confederacy would not have any way to obtain (get) supplies (food, clothes, weaponry, etc.) When the siege of Vicksburg was a success, the Union was able to carry out the anaconda plan since the Mississippi River is in Vicksburg, and by taking over the Mississippi River, that split the Confederacy into two.

How did the anaconda plan divide the south by taking control of the Mississippi river?

The original Anaconda Plan presented by US General Scott, had the value of taking control of the nations major river, the Mississippi River. It was a river of major economic ports and shipping. It was rejected at first. Later, without calling it the Anaconda Plan, the Union took control of the Mississippi River. By doing this the Confederate states laying to the west of the river were cut off from the eastern states of the Confederacy. It was not exactly "one half" but to a degree hurt the Confederate economy and its military power.
