The Union naval blockade during the American Civil War aimed to prevent the Confederacy from trading with foreign nations and to restrict the flow of supplies and goods into the Southern states. By blockading key ports, such as New Orleans and Charleston, the Union sought to weaken the Confederate economy and diminish its ability to sustain the war effort. This strategy significantly hampered Confederate access to resources, leading to shortages and contributing to their eventual defeat. The blockade was a crucial element of the Union's overall military strategy.
