The Siege of Richmond was a long campaign that slowly choked off the Confederate capital. When the nearby city of Petersburg and its railway depot were finally taken by Union forces, the Confederate government began to collapse. General Lee had little choice but to surrender his large army, and this news caused the other large southern army under General Johnston to surrender just a few days later.
