The correct answer is "To explain his ultimate loyalty to Virginia". Robert Edward Lee was an American soldier known for commanding the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia. At the beginning of the Civil War, General Robert E. Lee found himself grappling with federal and state loyalties. Although he fought on the Confederate side in the Civil war, his true allegiance lay with his beloved home state of Virginia.
