The gain for the Confederacy would be destruction of the Union Army, forcing the war to a conclusion with the subsequent capture of Washington. The gain for the Union would be the capture of the Confederate Army, which would significantly diminish their ability to fight for independence and retain their sovereign rights. In the end, the Union was able to repulse the Confederate forces, thought to be invincible up to that point due to a string of victories against a numerically superior Federal Army. Despite heavy losses on both sides, the diminishment of Robert E. Lee's forces was the beginning of the end, as the South didn't have the resources or replacements to repair the damage that was done- while the Union was beginning to learn how to engage and defeated the Confederates in the Eastern theatre of operations.
