∙ 12y agoWhat happened to Virginia's cities after the Civil War and Reconstruction?
Reconstruction means rebuilding. During the Civil War, much of the South was destroyed. Reconstruction was rebuilding AFTER the war- both physical rebuilding, and rebuilding the government in the former Confederate States.
The Reconstruction Period only happened following the Civil War. The purpose of this period was to rebuild the South after the war essentially caused it's destruction. "Reconstruction" referred to both the physical rebuilding of cities, roads, bridges, etc. damaged or destroyed by the war, and the economic retooling of commercial operations that had previously relied on slave labor. Both were necessary.

The period after the Civil War, 1865 - 1877, was called the Reconstruction period. Abraham Lincoln started planning for the reconstruction of the South during the Civil War as Union soldiers occupied huge areas of the South.
