Question

How did geography affect Florida during the Civil War?

Answer 1

Answer:

  Florida was far to the south, so few battles happened there.

Explanation:

  It was one of the seven original states who seceded from the Union following Lincoln´s election. It had the smallest populations of the Confederate States and nearly half of it was slaves. Its major importance was to supply food to the south and support blockade-runners along its long coastline.

  Because of its geography and the small population Florida´s had there was little fighting there. The only major conflict was the Battle of Olustee in February 1864.
