Question

:how did the south and the north name the battles of the civil war?

Answer 1

Northern soldiers, far more likely to hail from cities or urbanized areas, are believed to have been impressed with the geography of the South, including its mountains, abundant rivers and streams. In unfamiliar territory, they named many of their battles after these natural features. For confederate troops, familiar with the rural, natural terrain, towns and buildings were more memorable, and in the South, many of the same battles were referred to after the Man - made structures near by.
