<h2>Answer: The Reconstruction
</h2>
The Reconstruction was a period that came immediately after the end of the civil war in the United States, where the 11 southern confederate states tried to separate themselves from the rest of the country because of ideological differences, but mainly because of the slavery issue. Since the Southern states wanted to maintain the slavery system, while in the Northern states there were already free African-Americans.
This war broke out during the presidency of Abraham Lincoln and lasted four years (1861-1865), leaving thousands of dead on both sides and the southern territories (including crops and architecture) destroyed.
After the end of the war a period of tension was maintained, however Abraham Lincoln devised a plan to rebuild the southern states and reform the laws to give freedom to the slaves.
Lincoln was assassinated and the new president Andrew Johnson, continued with his position to unite the north and the south. It should be noted that during this period, which lasted twelve years, those who were slaves were given freedom and they were given <u>civil rights</u>, including the <u>right to vote</u>.
Their customs were outdated, the advancements of weaponry and technology by the europeans and americans frightened the japanese of invasion, hence opening its trade ports to adopt these new innovations by the Europeans and the Americans.

Answer:
Fifty years ago my friends and I had a party where we read and toasted each of the 95 theses so at one point I certainly read ’em all, though granted the effect of all those shots, I don’t recall the higher numbered ones very well. In any case, don’t think the theses, which are focused on indulgences, are a very clear statement of Luther’s theology. After all, in 1517, Luther didn’t realize he was instigating the Reformation; and the full statement of salvation by faith alone and the rest came later. What made the Theses matter wasn’t doctrinal. One of the major factors in the Reformation was resentment of the financial burden the Roman church put on the German people—the indulgences were sold to finance the building of Saint Peter’s cathedral. Whatever purely religious motives the German princes had in supporting Luther’s rebellion, they definitely liked the idea of not shipping money off to Rome. The prospect of secularizing the monasteries was mighty welcome as well. No princely support, no Reformation.
or
I’m definitely going for thesis 62 — “The true treasure of the church, is the most holy gospel of the glory and grace of God”
Rome and the Reformers both taught that a man is justified by God’s work of grace, but, it is all important to see the real contrast between the Roman and the Reformation faiths. ROME taught — justification by God’s work of grace in man emphasizing the work of God in us and our co-operation with that work.
The REFORMATION — taught that man is Justified by God’s work of grace in Christ, emphasizing what God does for us in Christ, without our co-operation.
