Name the two famous Ironclad warships of the civil war?
The South's Merrimac and the North's Monitor
What was the Norths Ironclad during the civil war?
The first ironclad of the North was the USS Monitor. Afterwards it built many ironclad ships, many based on the design of the Monitor.
What was the importance of the USS Monitor vs the CSS Virginia?
The two ironclad warships, the South's CSS Virginia and the North's USS Monitor, engaged in a naval battle "first". It was the first time two ironclads fought each other in naval history. Ironically, the CSS Virginia was a resurrected USS ship called the Merrimack that was burned during a Federal retreat from Norfolk earlier in the war. The importance was far reaching and also a short term shock event. The CSS Virginia's attack on Federal warships to support Union General McClellan's "peninsula campaign" to attack Richmond was a huge set back. The Union's wooden warships were sunk by the CSS Virginia. Now while the battle of the Monitor & Virginia was a draw, it showed the Union that ironclad warships were needed during and after the war.
