Anaconda Plan
The Union's three-part plan to conquer the South, known as the Anaconda Plan, included blockading Southern ports, capturing the Mississippi River to split the Confederacy, and taking control of the Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia. What was not part of this plan was the immediate focus on ground invasions to seize all Southern territory or a strategy centered on guerrilla warfare. Instead, the plan emphasized a more systematic approach to suffocate the South economically and geographically.
