During the American Civil War, the Battle of Fredericksburg (Virginia) in December 1862 was caused by the offensive plan of the Union leadership (including President Lincoln and the top military commander in the Eastern Theater, Major General Ambrose Burnside) to launch a daring attack on the South's capital of Richmond.

Lee, which deployed successfully to stop it.
