The Confederates' surrender at Vicksburg divided the Confederacy by leading to a loss of faith and support from its civilians, a weakening of the collective will to continue fighting, and a disruption in the ability to receive supplies from western states. Confederate armies in Northern states were also cut off from the South, further dividing the Confederacy.
