Anaconda Plan: a three-staged attack
The North developed a complex plan to defeat the Confederacy with as little deaths as possible. This plan, consisted of three parts, a western campaign, an eastern campaign, and a naval blockade of the Southern coast. The plan was properly titled Anaconda because the North was trying to squeeze the South and divide it so that it couldn't show a united front.
