What did the north gain out of reconstruction?

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.


What was the real reason why the southern states succeeded?

The southern states did not succeed, they lost.


How did slaves respond to Reconstruction?

They were happy to be free from slavery, but were treated unfairly by white men and Andrew Johnson. Here's my metaphor: There's a castle and a dungeon and ropes that bind you to the wall. The before the civil war slaves were bound with the ropes. During reconstruction they were trapped in the dungeon. Today they are lost in the castle.


Why do you call the period after the Civil War the reconstruction era?

"Reconstruction" was the word used during the War to describe the rejoining of the rebel states to the Union. It did not carry any pejorative connotation. During the so-called Reconstruction Era, 1865-77, it acquired the negative sense it has today, because of the theft and brutality of the Federal officials and their accomplices (the so-called "carpetbaggers" and "scalawags"). In recent decades such Marxist historians as Eric Foner have tried to rehabilitate the era by saying that Reconstruction failed because there was too much corruption on the part of Northern capitalists, and the radical Abolitionists quickly lost interest in their plan to destroy the South and replace the old ruling castes with Federal-backed negro governments."Neo-Confederate" historians occasionally answer that the corruption of the postwar years was endemic to Radical Republican rule, in North as well as South (for example the Grant Administration, the Jay Gould scandals, and the Boss Tweed ring).
