Yes, the Anaconda Plan, devised by General Winfield Scott during the Civil War, aimed to defeat the Confederacy through a strategy of blockades and control of the Mississippi River. While capturing Richmond, Virginia, the Confederate capital, was a key objective of Union strategy, it was not explicitly outlined as part of the Anaconda Plan itself. Instead, the plan focused more on constricting the South’s resources and movement. Ultimately, the capture of Richmond became a significant goal for Union forces later in the war.
