At the beginning, neither side was well-organised, and the Union General-in-Chief, Winfield Scott, correctly forecast that nothing of consequence would be achieved in the first year.
However, the South did have some distinct military advantages, notably some of the best officers of the US Army, who had resigned to join the Confederates. Also the South had a strong cavalry tradition, with most young men owning at least one horse. (It took the North two years to catch up.) The average Southern 'poor white trash' of military age was a more aggressive and soldierly type than his Northern counterpart. Finally, the South had high hopes of exporting its plentiful cotton in exchange for war supplies.
At the beginning of the Civil War, the South's two main military strategies were defensive and offensive. The defensive strategy aimed to protect Southern territory and maintain existing borders, relying on the knowledge of local geography and support from the population. The offensive strategy sought to invade the North, aiming to capture key cities and force a quick resolution to the conflict. Ultimately, these strategies reflected the South's goal to secure independence and assert its sovereignty.
At the beginning of the Civil War, the South primarily employed two main military strategies: defensive warfare and exploiting their advantages in military leadership and familiarity with the terrain. The Confederacy aimed to protect its territory and resources while waiting for the North to lose interest in the conflict. Additionally, they sought to gain recognition and support from foreign nations, particularly Britain and France, by leveraging their cotton production as a means of economic pressure.
