During the American Civil War, the Confederacy primarily fought a defensive war. Their strategy focused on protecting their territory and resources while attempting to outlast the Union's will to fight. Confederate generals, such as Robert E.

This defensive posture was aimed at preserving their way of life and securing independence for the Southern states.
