Question

Answer 1

Answer: Efforts to implement the principles of freedom and equality.

Explanation:

The post-war reconstruction era (and especially the South) is an effort to integrate about four million freed slaves into American society. Specific laws have been enacted, or codes by which the black community should behave. For the first time in history, this section of society was given the right to vote and even to participate in power. The North's endeavour to approach the reconstruction of the South in every respect is primarily an effort to defend the fundamental principles the North advocated during the war. It is, in fact, an effort to build a healthy and modern American society, based on democratic principles.
