In 1863, the Union achieved a major victory with the capture of Vicksburg, Mississippi, which gave them control of the river. This victory split the Confederacy in two and significantly weakened its ability to move troops and supplies. The Mississippi River played a central role in the Union's successful strategy to blockade and disrupt Confederate resources during the Civil War.","mcq_options":[{"right":"no","answer":"Revolutionary War"},{"right":"no","answer":"War of 1812"},{"right":"yes","answer":"Civil War"},{"right":"no","answer":"Spanish American War"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":1846,"title":"Geography of the United States","slug":"geography-of-the-united-states"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1748,"title":"The Mississippi River System of the United States","slug":"the-mississippi-river-system-of-the-united-states"},{"id":1747,"title":"The Rivers and Waterways of the United States","slug":"the-rivers-and-waterways-of-the-united-states"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/10628","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3502"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10628"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10628"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=10628"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=10628"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
