The South had several advantages in its rebellion to leave the Union in 1861. One such advantage was that it needed only to fight a defensive war to win. It did not need to invade and destroy the Union. It's hope was that the Union would tire of the war, its losses of soldiers , and the seemingly no victory in sight attitude for much of the war. The second major advantage was the size of the Confederacy. To win, the Union had to conquer a vast Southland and hold on to captured territory. This was a failed attempt until President Lincoln raised more troops to overwhelm the South.
