Washington DC the capital of the Federals, borders Virginia. Richmond Virginia was the capital of the Confederacy. Less than 200 miles seperates the two locations. Both sides wanted to capture the capital of the other side.
During the centenial, I had a statement that 90% of the battles were fought in Virginia. After doing my own reading, I don't believe this anymore. Go read about the campaigns in Tennessee, Mississippi and Georgia. You may change your mind.

The south suffered most of the destruction dating civil war why?
Nearly all the major battles were fought in the South, the big exceptions being Antietam/Sharpsburg (Maryland) and Gettysburg (Pennsylvania). There were a few battles in Kansas, Ohio and the District of Columbia (Union) and rather more in West Virginia (many of which took place when it was still formally part of Virginia and therefore "the south"), Maryland (slave but union) and Missouri (slave but claimed by both sides), and some battles against American Indians in the northwest, but outside of that, the fighting was almost entirely within territory claimed by the Confederacy, so it makes sense that most of the destruction would be there.
