What caused the French Revolution? Simple answer: They really didn't want to pay taxes and the cost of the food was high for them. So they went to war...
Answer: President Ulysses S. Grant
Explanation:
Reconstruction happened during Grant's two terms of office. The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) caused widespread violence throughout the South solely against African Americans.
By the year 1870, all former Confederate states had gotten readmitted into the United States and were now represented in Congress. However Democrats, majority of whom are former slave owners, violently refused to accept that these freedmen were citizens, whom suffrage were granted by the Fifteenth Amendment.
By 1871 Klan activity was getting out of control, while President Grant and Congress created the Department of Justice and had then passed three Force Acts into law. President Grant and his Attorney General Amos T. Akerman began a serious crackdown on Klan in the South, starting in South Carolina. They were making arrests and convictions, causing the Klan to demobilize and thus ensuring a fair election for 1872.

Answer:
1. Cortes marched up the coast of Mexico and conquered Veracruz
2. Cortes established alliances with enemies of the Aztecs
3. Moctezuma II welcomed the Spanish
4. Cortes and his men brought smallpox to Tenochtitlan
Explanation:
Cortes first arrived in the south of Mexico and had a brief encounter with the Maya. From there he continued up the coast until he reached Veracruz where he founded the first Spanish settlement. It was here that Cortes learned of the powerful Aztecs and about the many enemies they had among the prehispanic groups that had been conquered by them. Cortes had very few men with him so he knew he could not defeat the powerful Aztec empire alone. He decides to make alliances with the Tlaxcaltecans and begins his march towards Tenochtitlan, the Aztec capital. When the Spanish finally arrive, Moctezuma welcomes them (though it's not true that he thought Cortes was the reincarnation of Quetzalcoatl, that is an incorrect interpretation). Meanwhile, a new fleet of Spanish ships arrived in Veracruz and made their way to Tenochtitlan. One of the men in this group was sick and began the massive smallpox epidemic that wiped out around half of the indigenous population.
