Answer:
1.Fully blockade all Southern coasts. This strategy, known as the ANACONDA PLAN, would eliminate the possibility of Confederate help from abroad.
2.Control the Mississippi River. The river was the South's major inland waterway. Also, Northern control of the rivers would separate Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas from the other Confederate states.
3.Capture RICHMOND. Without its capital, the Confederacy's command lines would be disrupted.
4.Shatter Southern civilian morale by capturing and destroying ATLANTA, SAVANNAH, and the heart of Southern secession, South Carolina.
5.Use the numerical advantage of Northern troops to engage the enemy everywhere to break the spirits of the Confederate Army.

Finally, the relative influence of various sectors of the US government apparatus on inter-American relations has changed greatly since the 1970s. The State Department, the Pentagon, and the CIA are no longer the only - or the main - government agencies relevant to the region, as they were between the 50s and 80s. For many Latin American countries, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, and the person in charge of the area of Commerce are more important than the Secretary of State. The governors of California, Texas and Florida are more significant to certain issues or countries than some officials in Washington, as is evident in the current debate on immigration policy. Certainly, the heads of Homeland Security and the United States Anti-Drug Agency (DEA), officials of the Department of Agriculture and members of the Federal Judiciary have more impact than the Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs.
