So In 1865, following the Civil War, southern state legislatures began enacting Black Codes to restrict freedmen's rights and maintain the plantation system. The Republican-controlled Congress responded to these measures by passing the three great postwar constitutional amendments (Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth to be exact) that abolished slavery, guaranteed the newly freed blacks equal protection of the laws, and gave all male American citizens the right to vote regardless of their "race, color, or previous condition of servitude."
also, as Reconstruction came to an end in 1877, the concept of equal rights collapsed in the wake of legislative and judicial actions. The Civil Rights Cases of 1883 greatly limited the rights of blacks and strengthened Jim Crow laws in the South.
Asian, Irish and other immigrant Americans were also restricted from public life, isolated in segregated schools, and discriminated against in regard to employment and housing. They also suffered under bans on racial intermarriage and limitations on real property ownership.

<em>Mercantilism</em> is defined as the economic system in which the mother country controls trade with her colonies in order to increase her own prosperity, this because mercantilist countries tend to export more goods than the ones imported by them. Such economic system was practiced by England during the American colonial period.
In the particular case of South Carolina, <em>mercantilism</em> served not only as a market for British manufactured goods but also as a source of raw materials for such nation. Specifically, rice and cobalt were listed as products which could only be sold to England. This situation benefited American colonists since in this way a market for such products was secured, helping South Carolina to prosper economically thanks to this payment of additional money.
