The first Confederate state readmitted was Tennessee in 1866, the last was Georgia in 1870, after its 1868 return was blocked because it refused to ratify the 14th Amendment. (The states of Kentucky and Missouri had elected Union governments during the war.)

In 1868, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina and South Carolina were readmitted to the Union. Georgia, however, promptly forced all the black Americans out of their state legislature, which forced the U.S. Government to reinstate martial law. It was once again admitted back into the Union in 1870 along with the final former Confederate states of Texas, Virginia and Mississippi.
It was readmitted on January 26, 1870.
