Growth of the American Economy
The Anaconda Plan was a strategic military proposal developed by Union General Winfield Scott during the early stages of the American Civil War, aimed at constricting the Confederacy's resources and ability to wage war. This plan sought to achieve victory by blockading Southern ports and controlling the Mississippi River, effectively squeezing the Confederacy economically and logistically, much like an anaconda snake constricting its prey. It was a significant part of the Union's wartime economic policies and financing strategies.
