Answer:
A.) Carpetbagger
Explanation:
"Carpetbagger" was the term used to refer to natural citizens of northern states who moved to some southern state, after the secession war, during the southern construction. The aim of the Carpetbaggers was to use reconstruction and the disadvantaged people of the south to make money, or to gain political influence through several different activities. As you may already know, the southerners were very resentful to the northerners after the war, which made it difficult for the Carpetbaggers to achieve their goals, but they had help from the "Scalawags" or are white southerners who cooperated with the northerners throughout reconstruction.

... Now, here's that bonus thought I promised, in regard to ethnic conflict between Muslim and Hindu communities in India. Looking at more recent history and social interactions in India, Brown University professor Ashutosh Varshney published a great study in 2003 called, <em>Ethnic Conflict and Civic Life: Hindus and Muslims in India </em>(Yale University Press). Varshney's thesis, for which he provides much evidence, is that when opposing ethnic groups are involved in the everyday affairs of societal associations together -- such as shopping in the same markets, children attending the same schools, playing in the same soccer leagues, etc -- these associations tend to reduce occasions of violence between ethnic communities. It's when different ethinc communities live in very divided ways from one another that they have a greater tendency to erupt in violence against one another.</span>
