The Compromise of 1877 was an informal agreement that resolved the disputed 1876 presidential election between Rutherford B. Hayes and Samuel J. Tilden. The provisions included Hayes being awarded the presidency in exchange for the withdrawal of federal troops from the South, effectively ending Reconstruction. Additionally, it promised Southern states greater autonomy and the eventual support for internal improvements in the South, while also ensuring the protection of rights for African Americans would be largely ignored. This compromise marked the beginning of the Jim Crow era in the South.
