To be readmitted to the United States after the Civil War, Confederate states had to complete several political steps outlined primarily by Congress during Reconstruction. They were required to draft and ratify new state constitutions that guaranteed civil rights and suffrage for freedmen. Additionally, states had to reapply for admission to the Union and demonstrate loyalty to the U.S. government, often by swearing an oath of allegiance. The process was enforced through the Reconstruction Acts of 1867, which imposed military rule in the South until these conditions were met.
