Which description of the Anaconda Plan is correct? A. the South's strategy for victory by gaining control of the Ohio and Missouri rivers B. the South's strategy for victory that was named for the general who designed it C. the North's strategy for victory by attacking overland on two fronts and blockading ports D. the North's strategy for victory that required controlling the Anaconda River

Sagot :

The answer is C.   The Anaconda plan was the North's plan to end the civil war. General William T. Sherman led his Union army on a March to Sea along the eastern coast of the Confederacy, destroying towns and capturing ports, thereby preventing oustide  aid from reaching the beleaguered Confederate forces.  The other Union general, Ulysses S. Grant, captured the Mississippi River, a  critical supply line for the confederates, essentially splitting the Confederacy into two halves, the west and the east. The two Union armies then slowly converged  onto the eastern ( and more important half) and squeezed the life out of the Confederate army from both sides, just like an anaconda.

Answer:The answer is C. good day!
