The confederates burned Richmond for strategic reasons:

1) The Union cannot use Richmond as a staging area. If Richmond became a staging area, it would have not only a moral effect on the Confederate troops, but also allow the Union to regroup and press the attack.

2) There were a large amount of resources that could not be transported away from Richmond on time. However, if the resources fell into the hands of the Union, it would have spelled a quicker defeat for the Confederates.

Why do you think it might have been necessary for the Union to have African American soldiers? (Write at least a paragraph)
Xelga [282]

Answer:

it was important for both the African Americans and the Union soldiers that they fight alongside one another. Since the war was an ideological one, largely because of slavery, their fighting as equals could be a morale boost in both cases. The freeman also got to fight for the freedom of their people.
