The two factors or elements that would prevent General Grant from ending the US Civil War as quickly as he had planned were bungling by three of his subordinate generals along with the defensive strategy the Confederates had devised to prevent an early victory in the Fall of 1864.In Grant's view, generals Banks in the Trans-Mississippi, Butler and his failed assault on Richmond and Sigel's under performance in the Shenandoah Valley, hampered the Union's 1864 offensives.

Grant seemed to ignore the fact that in six weeks in Virginia, he managed to rack up over 60,000 Union casualties by assaulting strong Confederate fortifications.

How is a Canadian provincial government the same as the Canadian federal government?

The same framework was set up by the Constitution Act, 1867 for the form of Government that the federal government and provincial governments would have. Section 65 of the Constitution Act, 1867 provides that the Lieutenant Governors of the provinces exercise functions for the province in the same manner as would the Governor General for Canada.On the federal stage, the Governor General represents the Queen, and acts on the advice of the prime minister and the Queen's Privy Council for Canada (i.e., ministers) (the Governor General-in-Council). The Governor General appoints the person best able to command a majority of voices in the House of Commons as the prime minister. The Governor General also grants royal assent to proposed laws passed by the Senate and the House of Commons.On the provincial stage, the Lieutenant Governor represents the Queen, and acts on the advice of the premier and the Executive Council for the province (i.e., ministers) (the Lieutenant Governor-in-Council).
