Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The southern states underwent the forced program of Reconstruction, which was a period of rebuilding and readmitting the former Confederate states back into the union. This was a highly controversial and difficult process that included constitutional amendments, military occupation, and the establishment of civil rights for African Americans. The southern states were not immediately granted equal status with their northern counterparts, and they did not lead the fight for black rights. While they eventually regained their autonomy, they did not become colonies. The demands of World War I were not a factor in readmitting the southern states to the union, as this occurred many years earlier in 1870.
