The North did not gain much out of reconstruction. They did win the war and help to end slavery. However, reconstruction was not very successful and the north soon lost interest. This caused the south to regain control of their own states. While slavery was ended, African-Americans were still treated badly and held no rights.
It started just as soon as the northern carpetbaggers and scalawags could get here and begin their goal of making money off the devastation of the South. They had no "reconstruction" in mind, just making of personal wealth. South would have recovered much faster if the reconstruction people from the north had stayed at home.
Congressional Reconstruction restricted eligibility for participation in the state constitutional conventions in the South. Presidential Reconstruction was run by the president. The president who at the time was Abraham Lincoln made it up. When he died Johnson took over the plan. Congress lost hope in him so they tried to impeach him. They also in turn took over and named there plan Congressional reconstruction. Therefore Congress made Congressional Reconstruction and The president made presidential reconstruction. The presidential reconstruction supported the 10% rule, while the congressional reconstruction rejected the rule, instead they supported the"forfeited-rights theory"which states that as long as the southerners rebelled against the union; they had forfeited their rights under the U.S. constitution.. Also the presidential rule was very lenient towards the southerners. and offered some form of amnesty to southerners who would take oath of allegiance. the congressional reconstruction wanted revenge against the south. During presidential Reconstruction efforts to help the newly freed slaves went well at first. The Freedmen's Bureau educated blacks and helped them adjust to their new way of life. But very soon the Southern states passed "black codes," which discriminated against blacks, and President Johnson did little to protect their rights. Once the Radical Republicans realized that they could override the president's veto, they sharply increased the pace and tone of Reconstruction. They promoted the 13th Amendment, passed the Civil Rights and Reconstruction Acts, sent soldiers to the South to provide law and order, made it difficult for former Rebels to hold public office, and opened the doors to black citizenship.
I only know ONE of the reasons that the Reconstruction Era affects us today. And that is because of the recession. In 1873 the Panic of 1873 happened, thanks to a company named Jay Cooke and Company, a major investor in railroads and the largestfinancier in the Unions Civil War group, went bankrupted. Many people started loosing money and soon became unemployed. In 1874, the Democrats gained control of the House of Representatives.If you know any more, please improve this answer with another TRUE reason about this topic.
It was before the war. As soon as Lincoln won the Election of 1860, South Carolina called a convention where everyone voted for secession. They claimed that slavery was protected by the Constitution, and Lincoln was likely to prevent the creation of any new slave-states. Other Southern states joined them, and soon the war was on.
President Ruthford Hayes, nineteenth president, kept his campaign promise to remove federal troops from the South, ending the period known as Reconstruction. The order was given on May 1st, 1877. The decision to end Reconstruction and return the rule to Southerners, soon resulted in the partial disenfranchisement of the Blacks in the South.
Rutherford B. Hayes did that soon after he took office in 1877.
Andrew Johnson had that job after Lincoln was killed soon after the war ended.
Andrew Johnson and Ulysses S. Grant were the Presidents during the reconstruction period. Reconstruction is usually considered to have ended when Rutherford Hayes took office or soon afterward.

I'm not sure if there was ever an "official" reconstruction period. Generally, "Reconstruction" is applied to federal government policies applied to defeated Southern states as early as 1863. Historians generally agree that Reconstruction policies ended soon after the inauguration (following a razor-thin election) of Rutherford B. Hayes in 1877.
Andrew Johnson and Ulysses S. Grant were the Presidents during the reconstruction period. Reconstruction is usually considered to have ended when Rutherford Hayes took office or soon afterward.
President Andrew Johnson tried to enact Lincoln's more lenient Reconstruction plan, but the Republican Congress was determined to prevent the South from returning to its old ways. When Johnson fired his Secretary of War over disagreements, it led to his impeachment, and he narrowly retained the Presidency. "Radical Reconstruction" was soon underway, with military governors taking control of the states of the former Confederacy.
After the withdrawal of US troops in South Vietnam, the North and the South were joined to form a single communist nation under the rule of Ho Chi Min. And soon after the massacre in Cambodia by Pol Pot.
