Sherman invaded Georgia, with the "March to the Sea" campaign in order to end the war. He, as well as him men and the Union (U.S.A), were sick of the war and knew that the South would go on forever, for they had almost infinitely amount of people to throw into battle (slaves). He did so because the war needed to end, and if he didn't, then the war would have maybe lasted another 10 years.

What are general William Tecumseh Sherman controversies?
Sherman was felt to have exercised unnecessary brutality in his punitive raids on civilians in Georgia and South Carolina. He certainly approached the job in a harsh spirit, but the March to the Sea was a brilliant tactic that shortened the war by months at almost nil casualties. Grant had told him to "make Georgia howl", and he certainly fulfilled the brief. Attacking civilians always looks bad, but his own orders to the troops strictly forbade violence against the person. Where this occurred, it was mostly at the hands of the lawless stragglers who rode alongside the army for the pickings. It is possible that the burning of Columbia, South Carolina, was deliberate. But this was the state that had started the war, with a huge display of defiance and contempt for the USA. If the Confederates had ever managed to invade Washington or Philadelphia, I don't think they would have left much of it standing.

Why was it important to the Union army to invade Georgia?
Georgia was seen as the "heart" or keystone of the Confederate States. The bustling new city of Atlanta was not yet Georgia's capital, but it was a busy railhead and an important supply depot and industrial center. Taking Georgia would sever the Atlantic portion of the Confederacy from the Gulf states, and make it virtually impossible to transport food and materiel between the two regions. Grant and Sherman had a careful strategy in going after Georgia. In March 1864 they planned that Sherman would first conquer the Confederate forces around Chattanooga and Atlanta (Army of the Tennessee), then swing north through the Carolinas and meet Grant and Meade's people in Virginia. This was approximately what happened over the next year, although Lee surrendered at Appomattox while Sherman was still a few hundred miles to the south.
