Union victories and blockades left the Confederacy with no ports, harbors or rivers of navigation. There were no railroads and regions that had produced their food were either ravaged or occupied. Their army was defeated and disbanding. Although Lincoln offered them a concession that would have allowed them to end the war by accepting the Union and compensated them for their emancipated slaves, it was refused. As a result, ,the Confederacy collapsed.
