The Wilderness Battle, fought in May 1864 during the American Civil War, had significant effects on the Confederacy. While the Confederate forces, under General Robert E. Lee, managed to hold their ground against Union General Ulysses S. Grant's relentless advance, the battle marked the beginning of a prolonged and grueling campaign. The high casualties and the Union’s ability to continue their offensive strained Confederate resources and morale. Ultimately, the battle contributed to the erosion of Southern confidence, as it underscored the Union's determination and capacity to sustain heavy losses in pursuit of victory.
