Best Answer

The single most important military objective of the Union armies was to defeat the Confederate armies on the battle fields. They were able to do this many times, however, they were rarely in the position of destroying a Confederate army. This did happen a few times but not enough. The idea about diplomatic recognition was a problem for the State Department. The effectiveness of Union's naval blockade of Southern ports remains a hotly debated topic among military historians.
