What was Reconstruction How did the country attempt to achieve this goal?

Reconstruction: It was after the South surrendered the North tried to make the South part of the union. The country attempted it doing it a little bit at a time, I think it was 10% at a time.


Who was involved in the reconstruction?

The North and South were at the Reconstruction. This was a period of time following the Civil War in which the country began to be rebuilt. It is widely considered to be a failure due to the South suffering great losses.


Why didn't reconstruction work after the civil war?

Reconstruction didn't work after the civil war because the goal of reconstruction was to reintroduce the south back into the union as quickly as possible. There would be no real victory from the war unless the country was put back together. After the south was defeated in 1865 the reconstruction act of 1867 was set into place. Although slaves were freed the south established Black codes that treated the Blacks as slaves but weren't considered slaves. It set limitations on them so it kept them at the bottom of the food chain. Reconstruction ended in 1877 because the military pulled out of the south. The north got tired of spending so much money on the Reconstruction when little was being achieved. Ultimately reconstruction did work just not at the time that the north wanted it to work.


Do you believe reconstruction in the south was successful?

Reconstruction was only partially successful for a short time. When reconstruction ended, much of the south returned to its racist ways. It remained for the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s to complete the work that might have been accomplished with Reconstruction.


What were some changes after the civil war?

After the civil War the 13th amendment (Emancipation Proclamation) was made and abolished slavery. The south had to reconstruct their economy, as the slaves were a major part of the South's economy at the time. Do not think that the North won and said "Too Bad!", the North helped in the reconstruction as well.

How did the north use their advantages for reconstruction?

The north was always more industrialized the the south. At the time before the civil war, The south had many business affairs with Great Britain. The Souths main focus was on producing cotton for GB. This also was the beginning of the need for slaves. The North on the other hand was only focusing on industrializing. Creating factories, weapons, and starting to create more urban environments. So when the war started, the north having more technology available to them, was able to over come the south. Now reconstruction wasn't much of an issue for the north because 95% of the war was fought in the south, So there wasn't much reconstruction to be done. But with the advancement of technology at the time, was the main purpose that the north was able to recover what needed to be recovered. XD

What does the North won the war but the South won the peace mean when talking about the American Civil War?

It means that even though the North did win the actual Civil War the South won the time of Reconstruction. This is because during Reconstruction the government let the South go back to their old ways of complete racism and also they let them have sharecropping which was almost as good as slavery for the South. it took a lot of time before the government finally got everything figured out and helped the African-Americans.
