The Republican driven reconstruction efforts were designed to unify the nation and to change the wrongs that were evident when Northerners observed the reconstruction process. Having said that, at some point reconstruction simply had to end. The results were bad news for the hardcore Rebels who remained rebels after the North left its watch over the South and looked westward. So by the time federal government retreated from reconstruction, former Confederates had achieved through political terrorism what they had been unable to achieve with their armies. The new "order" of neo-confederates now had the ability to reorder, or to reform their society in the manner that gave rise to once again, as before, a newer version of White Supremacy.
Northern interests during Reconstruction often prioritized economic growth and industrial expansion over the social and political integration of the South. Many Northern politicians and business leaders were more focused on securing labor and resources than addressing the needs of newly freed African Americans or ensuring their rights. This led to conflicts over policies, such as land redistribution and civil rights, which undermined efforts to create a just and equitable society in the post-war South. Consequently, the emphasis on Northern economic interests frequently compromised the goals of Reconstruction, hindering progress toward true equality.
