Two things Lee hoped to accomplish by invading the North?

Lee had a number of reasons to invade the North. He marched the Army of Northern Virginia north with vigor after his remarkable victory over his outnumbered troops at Chancellorsville. Lee moved north to take pressure off the besieged town of Vicksburg. The other goal was to capture the capitol of Pennsylvania, Harrisburg. If successful his hope was to damage the morale of the North and aid the Confederacy's efforts to have European powers recognize the independence of the Confederacy. Gettysburg was not a planned battle and it was by chance along with the unexpected resignation of Union General Hooker from leading the Army of the Potomac.
