Answer:
Nathanael Greene was an army officer who was a commander of the Southern Department of the Continental Army, and a great military strategist, who led a campaign that ended the Britons possession of the south. He never fought in the battle that freed the south from the Britons but his leadership turned the tides in the Americans favor. Before he was given the job to lead the southern revolutionaries, there had been three commanders who had been highly unsuccessful and had left the south in a bad and vulnerable place. He had to go up with several very skilled generals and their large armies, with his small army. He directed sudden, brief attacks, and decided to divide, and thus weaken, his own army forcing the other side to split up, leading his men into a retreat making the leader of the british army group to follow them far away from their supply base, further weakening the British army and eventually overcoming them.
