Answer 1

Blockade Runners — Fast, shallow‑draft Confederate ships that tried to slip through the Union naval blockade to bring in supplies and arms.

Fort Pulaski — Union captured it in April 1862 using rifled artillery, proving masonry forts were obsolete and helping close Savannah’s river defenses.

Anaconda Plan — Union strategy to blockade Southern ports and seize the Mississippi River to economically and geographically squeeze the Confederacy.

Savannah — Coastal Georgia city taken by Sherman in December 1864 during his March to the Sea; a major port captured with little fighting.
