Sherman's main task was to break through the Confederate front in South Carolina.

On February 17, 1865 he seized the Capital City, Columbia, thus provoking the complete collapse of the enemy defense system and forced the Confederates to evacuate Charleston, his other most important objective, symbol of the rebellion, on the following day.

Why was Charleston South Carolina a target for Union forces in the US Civil War?

Charleston, South Carolina was a prime target for Union forces but proved to be an extremely difficult city to capture. For the Union, Charleston became this target for two main reasons:1. It was symbolic to capture this city as its harbor contained the famed Fort Sumter, the place where the Southern rebellion began;2. Symbolic it was, however its capture had military value as Charleston's port allowed for effectively and, on a regular basis very safe shipping, for ships carrying supplies into Charleston and out of the harbor. Despite the Federal blockade, 87 percent of all shipping traffic was successful. For some reason blockading attempts were dismal. It remained a sore spot for the Union from 1861 to 1865.
