Answer:
The North wanted to cut off the flow of Southern commerce and invade the major Southern cities to force a surrender. The South wanted to prevent any early Northern success, and maintain its
defenses until public opinion in the North forced a negotiated end to the war.
After the fall of Fort Sumter, President Lincoln ordered a naval
blockade off the seceded states. The Union also wanted control over the Mississippi river and to capture Richmond, Virginia, the
capital of the confederacy. It is only about 100 miles (160 km) from Washington, DC.
The South planned a war of delay, to wear the enemy out
physically and mentally until they gave up their invasion of the South. Its limited resources made this problematic, and this
defense could not be maintained for very longer, especially since their means of resupply (European trade, and resources from the West) were under constant interdiction by Union forces.
