Early Reconstruction efforts aimed to reintegrate the Southern states into the Union and address the legal status of formerly enslaved individuals. The period was marked by the implementation of the Freedmen's Bureau, which provided assistance to newly freed African Americans, and the passage of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments, which sought to ensure civil rights and voting rights. However, these efforts faced significant resistance from Southern states and white supremacist groups, leading to a tumultuous and often violent struggle over the direction of Reconstruction policies. Ultimately, early Reconstruction laid the groundwork for future civil rights advancements, despite significant challenges and setbacks.

How long did the official reconstruction period last?
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.
What was the main cause for the end of reconstructure?
Actually reconstruction ended with the election of Hayes in 1877. The election was a tie and Hayes made a deal with the committee who decided the presidency. The deal was he would end reconstruction and this decision actually affected policy for the next 100 years. By ending reconstruction early the southern states were able to institute Jim Crow Laws which made discrimination an government policy. Without the early end to reconstruction the south may have been a different place and it took the 1964 Civil Rights act to overcome Jim Crow.
