Blockade by sea and division of the South at the Mississippi. The primary strategy was to isolate the South and prevent them from obtaining goods and supplies from other countries. This strangled them economically, they couldn't sell cotton and didn't have money to buy military supplies. The next was to split the Confederacy, capturing the Mississippi River and prevent goods and supplies coming across from the western states.

What was the strength of the north in the war?
The strength of the north during the Civil War was its size. Although the South had great leadership with General Robert E. Lee, the North was able to use its resources (large size, better weapons) to their advantage. A few examples are Grant winning in Vicksburg, William Tecumseh's march to the sea, and Meade helping with the turning point of the war, Gettysburg. Gettysburg worked because of a great execution of tactics using the high ground in the area. So, in conclusion, the North's strength in the Civil war was their use of resources and tactical abilities.
