Because the south was unhappy about the end of the civil war. Abraham Lincoln created amendments which gave rights to the slaves.
Slavery gave way to sharecropping - the labourer owning part of his harvest.
The Civil War significantly shaped modern American society by leading to the abolition of slavery and the establishment of civil rights, laying the groundwork for future social justice movements. It also prompted changes in governance and federal authority, reinforcing the power of the national government over states. Additionally, the war spurred advancements in technology and industry, influencing economic structures and labor relations that continue to impact our lives today. Overall, its legacy is evident in ongoing dialogues about race, equality, and federalism in contemporary America.
