Answer:

Most battles in the War Between the States were fought in the South was partly the result of the decision to blockade the Confederate State to prevent the South from getting supplies from nations like Great Britain and because Ulysses Grant decided to campaign for incursions into Southern territories to disrupt their infrastructure and destroy their garrisons (like the port of Memphis on the Mississippi) .
