At the beginning of the Civil War, President Lincoln ordered the U. S. Navy to close off the ports along almost 3,500 miles of Atlantic coastline. This was so the Union could stop them from bringing products in and from sending their own goods out of the country. Though many smaller Confederate ships were able to get out of the ports, they only had a little bit of goods, and the South needed much more to support their economy.
