How did Republicans gain control over Southern state governments during Reconstruction?

During Reconstruction, Republicans gained control over Southern state governments primarily through the political mobilization of newly enfranchised Black voters, who largely aligned with the party. Additionally, the federal government, under Republican leadership, implemented measures such as the Reconstruction Acts, which mandated the establishment of new state governments and protected voting rights. The presence of Union troops in the South helped suppress violent opposition from white supremacist groups, further facilitating Republican dominance. Over time, however, systemic racism and the eventual withdrawal of federal support led to the decline of Republican power in the South.
