Explanation:
After the Civil War, the United States Congress enacted four laws known as Reconstruction Acts in 1867 as part of the continuing reconstruction process. The legislation contained certain rules which include States were obliged to ratify the Fourteenth Amendment for re-admission into the Union, to create five military districts in the seceded states, required Confederate States to extend voting rights to all citizens irrespective of their race and requiring Congressional approval of new state constitutions. In the former Confederate states, the Reconstruction Acts developed strong resentment, although reluctant to these, they agreed to the terms.
