During the American Civil War, the famous "Anaconda Plan" of General Scott was enacted over the course of many years, rather than taking place on a single day or in a single month. Slowly but surely, the Union Navy built up a blockade on Southern ports. Just as slowly (if somewhat less surely), the Union Army (and Navy) broke the South in two along the line of the Mississippi River.
One important part of the Anaconda Plan was to take control of the Mississippi River. Another part was to block all ports and to take over Richmond.
The North used a strategy called the "Anaconda Plan". The plan was to set up a naval blockade along the eastern coast. The goal was to to block imports to the South and to strangle the South's economy. Hence, the name anaconda.

(At that time, nearly everybody expected a short war.) Later, when they found it wasn't going be a short war, the Union did go ahead with a plan that was very like it.
