In order to end the rebellion of the Southern states, the Union realized that it would be necessary to invade the South and destroy their rebel armies. The South would be successful by hoping that the Union's war losses would cause it to cease its attacks on the South. With that said, invasions of Southern territory by the North caused most battles to be in the South. In addition, the South believed it could outlast the Union's efforts, however, this called for the South's defensive posture. Union invasions therefor caused almost all of the Civil War battles to be located in the South.
