For the following reasons:
1 - Tennesse was the point of junction between the Confederate states of the east and the west;
2 - the most important railroads lines connecting the afore mentioned states were running through its territory;
3 - being crossed by the Rivers Tennessee and Cumberland and the Mississippi, which marked its western border, was the main strategic way of penetration into the Confederacy's territory.
