Although the southern states were all seated in Congress by 1870, federal troops remained in some southern states until the comp
Flura [38]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The exit of Union troops from the territory of Southern states marked a symbolic end to the Reconstruction Era. It followed a major political deal between Republicans and Southern Democrats. The 1876 election was a disputed election; results from Louisiana, Florida and South Carolina - three states where Republicans still governed  - were questioned. The deal recognized the victory of Republican Rutherford Hayes as president and agreed to Democratic control in the South.

In the 1870s, the Republican Party had turned more conservative and less egalitarian, and though the 14th and the 15th Amendments had been passed by Congress to give rights to African-Americans, Southern legislatures had passed laws that put important barriers to the African-American voters to exercise their rights.

Factual: Explain two major structural problems with the Articles of Confederation. What societal problems arose because of the s
Galina-37 [17]
The Articles of Confederation was the first plan of government for the young United States. There were many flaws with this plan.

1. The Articles gave too much power to the states, and too little power to the national government. Because of this, many conflicts, such as the Shay's Rebellion arose. The national government did not have much power to prevent conflict between the states, and this basically caused chaos.

2. To make a change in the nation, all thirteen states had to agree. This, in itself, was extremely hard to do. Even today, only 2/3rd of Congress has to agree to ratify a bill. However, the Articles of Confederation did not give the central government enough power to levy taxes, or command a military. 

Overall, the Articles of Confederation were weak. This eventually led to a Constitutional Convention, and the ratification of our US Constitution.
