Union Plan for Victory The Northern military plan had 6 components 1. Slowly suffocate the South by blockading its coasts. 2. Liberate the slaves and undermine the very economic foundation of the South. 3. Cut the Confederacy in half by seizing control of the Mississippi River. 4. Dismember the Confederacy by sending troops through Georgia and the Carolinas. 5. Capture its capital at Richmond. 6. Try everywhere to engage the enemy's main strength and grind it into submission.

Ironclads On March 9, 1862, the Union ironclad, the Monitor, and the Confederate Merrimack met and fought to a standstill.

Battle of Antietam As Lee moved into Maryland, he met McClellan's forces again at the Battle of Antietam on September 17, McClellan managed to halt Lee's forces after his forces discovered Lee's battle plans. The Battle is the bloodiest day in American History.

3,650 Killed 17,300 Wounded

Emancipation Proclamation Antietam provided Lincoln with the military backing to issue the Emancipation Proclamation The Emancipation Proclamation called for the freeing of all slaves in Confederate territory, except in locations where the Union had regained control. Lincoln did not include the freeing of slaves in the Border States for fear that they would secede. The North now had a much stronger moral cause. It had to preserve the Union and free the slaves

Battle of Gettysburg As Lee moved his Confederate force to the north again (this time to Pennsylvania), he was met by Meade's force at Gettysburg on July 1- 3, The failure of General George Pickett's charge enabled the Union to win the battle.

March to the Sea The invasion of Georgia was left up to General William Tecumseh Sherman. He captured Atlanta and burned it. He destroyed rail lines and burned buildings. He continued on through Georgia, with the main purposes of destroying supplies destined for the Confederate army.

Politics During the War Congressman Clement L. Vallandigham was a prominent member in a group called the Copperheads, which were radical Peace Democrats. Vallandigham was banished from the North to the South. The Democrats, including the Copperheads, nominated General McClellan was their presidential candidate. The Northern Democrats lost the election of This was one of the most crushing losses suffered by the South. The removal of Lincoln was the last hope for a Confederate victory

The War Ends President Lincoln chose General Grant to lead the assault on the Confederate capital of Richmond He captured Richmond and cornered Lee. On April 9, 1865, Lee was forced to surrender On April 14, 1865, President Lincoln was shot and killed at Ford's Theater by John Wilkes Booth. Andrew Johnson took over as President. The Civil War claimed over 600,000 lives and cost over $15 billion (year 2001 dollars).
