Would the House or Senate be responsible for running Southern states? Once millions of slaves were set free, what would become of them?

Answer 1

Three of the primary considerations that needed to be addressed when the Civil War ended were what would happen to the freed slaves, how would the South's economy recover, and what the punishments should be for the South. 

Answer 2

The three primary reasons are the requirements for Confederate states to reenter the Union; overseeing the rebuilding of a Southern economic infrastructure; the fate of millions of freed slaves. These were the main issues and hot topics of American Civil War during that time.
