Anaconda plan
Confederacy
The Anaconda Plan was a strategic outline formulated by the Union during the Civil War to defeat the Confederacy. Its key components included a naval blockade of Southern ports to restrict trade and supplies, the capture of the Mississippi River to split the Confederacy in two, and the gradual encirclement of Southern forces. By constricting resources and movement, the Union aimed to weaken the South economically and militarily, ultimately leading to its surrender.
The union troops used the "anaconda plan" By General Winfield Scott. The anaconda plan said that it would blockade the Souths ports, keeping out any European trade and then it would capture the Mississippi river to divide the rebels further. As you can guess the union is slowly constricting the confederacy thus it is called the anaconda plan.

Northern success in the Siege of Vicksburg was important because the Union had a plan called the anaconda plan. The anaconda plan is when the Union planned to cut the Confederacy in half. By doing this, the Confederacy would not have any way to obtain (get) supplies (food, clothes, weaponry, etc.) When the siege of Vicksburg was a success, the Union was able to carry out the anaconda plan since the Mississippi River is in Vicksburg, and by taking over the Mississippi River, that split the Confederacy into two.
Once Grant gained control of Vicksburg, it cut the Confederacy in half. Everything west of the Mississippi River had no communication with the rest of the Confederacy. This relates to the Anaconda plan because the more that the Union can split the Confederacy, the weaker it will become and the more likely it will be to surrender.
