Despite the North's greater population, however, the South had an army almost equal in size during the first year of the war. The North had an enormous industrial advantage as well. At the beginning of the war, the Confederacy had only one-ninth the industrial capacity of the Union. But that statistic was misleading
A His capture of Vicksburg prevented shipments of Confederate supplies from reaching the West.
William T. Sherman's siege and eventual capture of Vicksburg led to the severing of the western half of the confederate states from the east, leading to the South having problems moving supplies and man across, and effectively cut off all trade, weakening the CSA.
B His march destroyed Georgia and demonstrated the military superiority of the Union troops.
Sherman's famous "March to the Sea" was directed through the state Georgia, in which the soldiers destroyed many infrastructures, and burned crops. They also freed slaves in the surrounding area, which swelled their ranks.
D His capture of Atlanta facilitated the reelection of Lincoln as president.
Many Northerners were complaining that Lincoln was not doing much to help the war (as the North progressed slowly), and looked to a general that Lincoln had laid off, George McClellan, who headed the Democratic Party and promised a speedy treaty with the South with favorable terms for both sides. However, victory by Lincoln's generals meant that the people had faith in him again, and so they reelected him.

Answer:
B. first black man to vote in the United States
Explanation:
Benjamin Banneker was known as one of the early successful African Americans in the United States due to his exposure, level of education, occupation, and most importantly his non slavery background.
It is true that he was a surveyor of the nation's capital, having worked under Major Andrew Ellicott in a survey that ascertained the actual borders of the DC, the federal capital of the United States.
It is also true that he knows mathematics, astronomy, and authors some books in his lifetime.
It is also true that he was a son of a freed slave. His mom was a free African-American woman while his dad was, a former slave.
What is not true, however, is that he was the first black man to vote in the United States as that honor goes to Thomas Mundy Peterson.
