A strategic victory is a victory that brings long-term advantage to the victor and disturbs the enemy's ability to wage a war. When a historian speaks of a victory in general, they are usually referring to a strategic victory. For example, during the American Civil War, Union and Confederate armies fought each other at the Battle of Antietam. The battle was tactically inconclusive, with both armies suffering about the same amount of casualties. However, it brought the Confederate invasion of Maryland to a halt, and caused Britain and France to abandon plans to potentially recognize the Confederacy as a legitimate government. By preventing these events which would have seriously damaged the Union cause in a wider sense, the battle is generally recognized as a strategic victory for the Union forces. ==Examples== *Battle of the Coral Sea - World War II *Battle of Antietam - American Civil War *Battle of Moscow - World War II *First Battle of the Marne - World War I 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Strategic victory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
