The Union Army's strategy at the Battle of Antietam was to keep the army intact to avoid being flanked by the Confederacy.

<h3>What did the Union do at the Battle of Antietam?</h3><h3 />

At the Battle of Antietam, the Union Army knew that the Confederates would attempt to flank them by dividing their army. They knew this because they had found out General Lee's plans in advance.

As a result, the Union Commander, Gen. George B. McClellan, kept the army intact while trying to attack the flanks of the enemy. General Lee then attacked with all his force thinking that the Union would see this and fall back.

The Union responded by standing their ground and driving back the Confederate army. The strength of this strategy was that it won the battle for the Union. A limitation was that it cost many lives.

/\/\/\/\PLEEEEEEEEEEASE I NEED HELP/\/\/\/\.Write a descriptive paragraph describing Mansa Musa's pilgrimage to Makkah.

Mumz [18]

Mansa Musa was a devout Muslim. In 1324, he started making preparations for his initial pilgrimage journey to Mecca. The distance between Mali and Mecca is approximately 3000 miles. Therefore, it took officials and servants from his empire several months to make adequate preparations for the journey. The initial step in making preparations involved the collection of animals which were to be used as sources of food as well as carry luggage. The animals included goats, cows, and camels. Items to be carried by the animals included gold, food, and clothing. More than 30,000 pounds of gold were carried among 100 camels. A large number of people were also included in the caravan that accompanied the king. It is estimated that the caravan consisted of 60,000 people of whom 12,000 were slaves (Woods & Tucker, 2006). Others included 500 maids who were identified by the king’s first wife, soldiers, story tellers, teachers, and doctors (Woods & Tucker, 2006).
