Answer 1

Compromise of 1877How

Answer 2

Oh, dude, the Compromise of 1877 ended Reconstruction in the Southern states. Basically, it was like a deal where the Republicans got to have Rutherford B. Hayes as president, and in return, they had to pull federal troops out of the South. So, yeah, Reconstruction was like, "I'm outta here!"

Answer 3

The Compromise of 1877 effectively ended the Reconstruction era following the Civil War. It involved a political agreement between Republicans and Democrats, resulting in the withdrawal of federal troops from the South, effectively ending Reconstruction efforts. As a result, Southern states were allowed to establish Jim Crow laws and enforce racial segregation, leading to decades of systemic discrimination and oppression against African Americans.

Answer 4

The compromise of 1877 stated that Southern Democrats would recognize Rutherford B. Hayes as the winner of the 1877 presidential election, if Rutherford B. Hayes meet the following demands:

1) The removal of all federal troops from former Confederate States

2) Appointment of at least one Southern Dem to the Cabinet

3) Legislation that would industrialize the south, including a trans Continental rail road connecting Texas and California

Answer 5

The Compromise of 1877 resulted in the end of Reconstruction and the end of the political power of the so-called Redeemers. The politics of the South became dominated by conservative elements of the Democratic party.
The Presidential Election of 1876 featured Republican Rutherford B Hayes and Democrat Samuel J Tilden facing off in a bitter struggle that basically ended in a tie. Tilden claimed 51% of the popular vote, but the vote in the Electoral College was impossible to decide.

These were the years following the Civil War, and tensions were still very high. In Florida, Louisiana, and South Carolina, the state legislatures (who are responsible for sending the Electors to Washington to elect the President - hence "Electoral College") could not agree on who won in their states, and so they sent two sets of Electors each, one for the Republican Hayes and another for the Democrat Tilden. Oregon also had one Elector unaccounted for. The Constitution foresaw many things, but a complete debacle over who voted for whom is not one of them.

Congress was left with an impossible task - it was clear that no one would ever know who really "won" the Election of 1876, but someone had to be President. And so a deal was struck. Tilden would concede the race to Hayes, who would become President. In exchange, Hayes would withdraw federal troops from the former Confederate States, ending Reconstruction.

On March 4, 1877, Rutherford B Hayes became the 19th President of the United States. His first major act in office was to order the withdrawal of troops from Texas, Virginia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Florida. On March 31, 1877, the last federal troops left the South, and Reconstruction ended.
