Answer:

This is what I decided to write: Reconstruction began a few years after the Civil War ended. It was a period during which "pieces of the puzzle" needed to be reassembled. At this point, the United States was once again attempting to run as an independent country. In everyone's mind, hatred and resentment had hardened as a result of the mass killing. The south was almost completely cut off from politics and economics and was seeking to regain its footing. The population now included close to four million former slaves who had no idea how to earn a living. Due to the 13th amendment, they have been freed since 1865, and will likely become a key issue for politicians in the future. Still, something had to be done. Reconstruction began with Abraham Lincoln's blueprint. Ten percent of the state's voters had to agree to emancipated slaves and swear union loyalty for the state to rejoin the union under the "Lincoln Plan." Also, high-ranking state officials were forbidden from holding office or voting unless directed by the president.

Andrew Johnson became president after Lincoln's assassination in April 1865. It was in May that he inaugurated the Presidential Reconstruction period (1865-67). Johnson pardoned all Southern whites with the exception of Confederate leaders and wealthy planters (though most of these individuals were subsequently pardoned individually), restoring their political rights and all property, except slaves. Johnson's plan was not approved by many Radicals. It was felt that he had gone over the limit with 13,000 pardons and that he wasn't taking the issue of slave rights seriously enough. This led to Andrew Johnson being impeached in 1868. Despite not being removed from office, he was essentially powerless. A plan for reconstruction was then drafted by Congress. Congress passed the Reconstruction Act, which had two main points. On the one hand, troops had to move in and take up residence in The Confederate States of the South. Secondly, states that wanted to re-enter the union needed to amend the 14th amendment to do so. The men had to agree that since they were citizens, they would be entitled to equal protection under the law.

In the two presidential elections since 1876, Democrats Sam Tilden and Rutherford B. Hayes stood against each other. A "commission" was set up so that an outcome could be determined because the race was so close. A compromise was reached in 1877. Hayes was declared the winner in this compromise, and both parties agreed to this. However, there was another stipulation. Southern states would no longer be occupied by the military. There was no safety for the freed slaves living there without military force backing them up. It can be difficult to determine whether Reconstruction succeeded or failed. Until recently, that question has been debated.
