The Confederacy's Ship (Merrimack) And the Union's Ironclad Ship (Monitor)
The Merrimack, also known as the Virginia, was the first ironclad warship. It was created by the Confederacy in 1862 in order to retaliate against the Union Fleet blockading southern ports.
The USS Merrimack did not have an opportunity to fight in the Civil War. It was burned to the waterline by Union personnel as they abandoned the Norfolk ship yard. The Southern Navy raised the remains and built the CSS Virginia from the parts.

At the Battle of Hampton Roads in 1862, the USS Monitor fought the former Union ship, the Merrimack. The Confederates had raised the hull of the Merrimack at Norfolk and rebuilt it as an ironclad they named the CSS Virginia. The battle was a draw, however, the Monitor saved Union ships from more destruction as the Virginia was damaged and sailed back to Norfolk.

The Union.
She was with the Union.
The first ironclad for the Confederacy was the CSS Virginia. It had been the USS Merrimack and previously been left for "dead" when Confederate troops assaulted the Union base at Norfolk, Virginia. The Union burned it lest it fall into Confederate hands. Southern engineers salvaged the hull of the Merrimack and rebuilt it with thick iron sides, and added her with canons on each side.
