The North's war plan was called the Anaconda Plan because it aimed to suffocate the Confederacy economically and strategically, much like an anaconda snake constricts its prey. Proposed by General Winfield Scott, the plan involved blockading Southern ports to cut off supplies and capturing the Mississippi River to divide the Confederacy. This strategy sought to weaken the South's resources and morale over time, ultimately leading to its surrender.
