What was the strategy of the North and the South in the Battle of Antietam?

The North's strategy was called a persistent strategy. They wanted to capture and occupy southern territory to deny it's benefits to the South, that being manpower and materials. Later they adopted a raiding strategy when Sheridan and Sherman devastated the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, and central Georgia in order to make it harder for the South to get materials. The north strategy also wanted to take control of the Mississippi river, the Confederate capital of Richmond, and take advantage of main railroads so when in battle they could easily travel from place to place to get more soldiers or equiptment. The south first held to a defensive strategy, which ment they wanted allies (British and the French, who needed the South's cotton exports) would see the North at the agressor and would come to help the South. Later the South adopted a raiding strategy and sought to take the war to the north by launching two invasions ,and captureing materials, destroying rail centers, and raiding cities. In hopes of bringing the North to peace by fanning the northern anti-war sentiment. A.L. 12/6/07

What were the results of the British strategy in the south similar to the results in the north?

The British strategy in the South during the American Revolutionary War, similar to their efforts in the North, ultimately failed to achieve decisive victory. In both regions, British forces faced strong resistance from American troops and local militias, leading to significant losses and a drain on resources. Additionally, the British strategy relied heavily on loyalist support, which was often overestimated and proved insufficient to secure control. Both theaters demonstrated that British military superiority could not easily translate into political dominance or the suppression of revolutionary fervor.
