Question

As immediate result of the civil war

Answer 1

Most of the immediate effects were the end of Slavery, but this was superseded with Sharecroppers. Sharecropper’s were freed African-American’s who rented land from a old plantation owner, and the Owner got a share of the crops. This system kept African-American’s in poverty, not really improving their situation by much. Another was the Union Army during reconstruction garrisoning the old south. A little later, during the Spanish-American war, Confederates were allowed to join into the U.S. Army.
