The correct answer for 1 is Robert E. Lee

He was in charge of organizing the defenses of the southern Atlantic coast during the first winter of the war and because of his success in this organization he grew in ranks and got the support of the Confederacy and became something like a military superstar and was ordered to help others organize the army better.

The correct answer for 2 is James River

It also included the York river but James river was primary. The goal of this flanking was to reach Richmond and take it by storm which was the capital of the Confederacy. By managing to outflank them, they would be able to attack the city without the trenches and armies defending it and would have the ability of winning the war.

The correct answer for 3 is the peninsula between the York and James Rivers

This was the first large scale operation in the eastern theater and was fought in Virginia. The goal of it was to capture Richmond which was the capital, however, the plans failed. This was a major victory for the Confederate army and the Union army was kicked off of the peninsula. Although it was problematic for both sides, Lee managed to win the battle for confederacy.

The correct answer for 4 is CSS Virginia


This was the first such ship in the navy of either sides and was the first not built out of wood. It worked wonders in defending the Southerners from Union advances but it had to be destroyed because it could not be used in such shallow rivers so the confederacy destroyed it themselves to prevent it from falling into Union hands.

The correct answer for 5 is Seven Days’ battle


Although McClellan did at first have success at pushing towards Richmond, after a huge battle the leader of the Confederacy army had to be replaced due to being wounded which is when Lee took his position. Lee organized the army and led the Seven Days’ battle which proved to be a bad thing for the Union as they were completely beaten

The correct answer for 6 is Monitor and the Virginia


Monitor was on the side of the Union and Virginia was on the side of the confederacy. Virginia was originally built using a wooden ship as a foundation with huge steel parts added to it to give it its purpose while the monitor was built using a steel hull which was a design by a Swedish inventor.

The correct answer for 7 is Mathew Brady

Not only was he the most famous of all photographers, but he is also often titled as the father of photojournalism because of the photo he made of the civil war and his reports. He took pictures of everything, from people such as Lincoln and Lee, to battlefields and fortresses and settlements.

The correct answer for 8 is attempted to invade the North

At first Lee organized the Northern Virginia campaign which was also a success and a big confederate victory. He wanted to keep moving north and take the battle to them instead of just fighting on Southern soil so he entered the Maryland campaign where he eventually lost and may have even turned the war around.

The correct answer for 9 is the Battle of Antietam

This was the bloodiest day in the war’s history because over twenty two thousand soldiers died on that day. Although the battle is mostly considered to be a draw, leaning towards a strategic victory for the Union, it mostly resulted in the release of the Emancipation Proclamation which caused huge troubles for southerners.


The correct answer for 10 is a graduate of the military academy at West Point

He enrolled into West Point and studied to be an engineer and eventually did graduate and did become an officer in the field of army engineering. He graduated second in his class only behind Charles Mason who became the supreme justice of Iowa in that time. Lee’s family were tobacco planters so it’s not a military family or all of these.

The correct answer for 11 is sank the USS Housatonic

This was the first combat submarine ever in history to use submarine warfare to defeat enemy ships. Although it was not completely submerged, it got close to Housatonic and destroyed it after which the Hunley itself was lost along with twenty one crew member who sank together with the boat which failed to return safely from its mission.
