Why did the confederates burn Richmond as president Davis and his cabinet fled?

History

Anit [1.1K]3 years ago

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 was a severe downturn in oil prices during the early '80s detrimental to the Soviet economy?
Lelechka [254]
The main reason why a severe downturn in oil prices during the early '80s was detrimental to the Soviet economy is because Russia was one of the world's leading exporters of oil in the world--meaning that when prices dropped, so did their GDP.
