The North supported Reconstruction to rebuild the South after the Civil War, aiming to reintegrate the Southern states into the Union and ensure the rights of newly freed African Americans. Economic interests also played a role, as a stable South could boost the national economy. Additionally, there was a moral imperative to address the injustices of slavery and promote civil rights. This period was seen as a way to reshape Southern society and politics to align more closely with Northern ideals.
