BLOCKADES AND FLORIDA'S SUPPLIES
What are the 3 supplies Florida
contributed the Civil War?
UNION BLOCKADES
This plan was called the Anaconda Plan because, like a snake, the Union meant to constrict the South. They would surround the southern borders, keeping out supplies.
Did any Confederate ships get through?
A number of ships did make it through. One estimate shows that nearly 80 percent of the attempts to get though the blockade made it safely. However, these were mostly small, fast ships called blockade runners. They were small and fast which helped them to elude the Union Navy.
