The plan that split the Confederacy in two was known as the Anaconda Plan. Proposed by Union General Winfield Scott during the Civil War, it aimed to blockade Southern ports and gain control of the Mississippi River. This strategy would effectively isolate and weaken the Confederacy by cutting off its supply lines and dividing its territory. The plan ultimately contributed to the Union's victory by limiting the Confederacy's resources and mobility.
The Union naval blockade of the Confederacy, implemented during the American Civil War, significantly restricted the South's ability to trade and acquire essential supplies. By cutting off access to foreign markets, the blockade hampered the Confederacy's economy, leading to shortages of food, weapons, and other critical resources. The blockade also aimed to diminish Confederate morale and support for the war effort. Ultimately, it played a crucial role in the Union's strategy to weaken the Confederacy and contribute to its eventual defeat.
