Johnson granted pardon's to people who took an oath of loyalty, No pardons would be available to high Confederate officials and persons owning property valued in excess of $20,000. Not only that but he felt a state need to abolish slavery before it could be readmitted. He also was not a great people person.

A clash between Johnson and congress was inevitable at this point. But eventually congress brewed up a plan(pardon the term) Congress passed the civil right bill in 1866, when President Johnson vetoed a bill to extend the life of the Freedmen's Bureau. Congress wanted to amend it to include protection for the black population. So as you can see congress didn"t really have a plan for reconstruction so they differ very extremely.

Roman dictators were allocated absolute power during times of emergency. Their power was originally neither arbitrary nor unaccountable, however, being subject to law and requiring retrospective justification. There were no such dictatorships after the beginning of the 2nd century BC, and later dictators such as Sulla, Julius Caesar, and the Roman Emperors, exercised power much more personally and arbitrarily. * In contemporary usage, dictatorship refers to an autocratic form of absolute rule by leadership unrestricted by law, constitutions, or other social and political factors within the state.
