The Confederacy actively sought Indian support during the Civil War by offering various incentives, including promises of land, autonomy, and military alliances. They aimed to secure the allegiance of Native American tribes, particularly those in the southwestern territories, by appealing to their interests and grievances against the Union. The Confederacy sought to leverage these alliances to strengthen their military position and disrupt Union supply lines. Some tribes did align with the Confederacy, while others remained neutral or sided with the Union.
The Confederacy had the advantage of fighting a defensive war on their home territory, which allowed them to hold off Union advances in various regions such as the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River. They also had interior lines of communication, making it easier to move troops and supplies between different parts of the country. Additionally, the Confederacy had a larger land area to defend, which made it more challenging for the Union to conquer and occupy all of their territory.

The plan that involved surrounding the Confederacy was known as the Anaconda Plan. Proposed by Union General Winfield Scott during the early stages of the American Civil War, it aimed to suffocate the Southern states economically and militarily by blockading southern ports and controlling the Mississippi River. This would effectively isolate the Confederacy, limit its resources, and facilitate a gradual Union victory. The strategy emphasized a combination of naval and land forces to encircle and constrict Confederate operations.
