The correct answer is Oedipus makes decisions based on the will of the gods.
Indeed, at this point in the plot, the Kingdom of Thebes has fallen to some kind of plague that pollutes the people and the fields, causing starvation. He has a prophet consult the Oracle of Apollo to see what can be done and the prophet comes back with an injunction, not a prophecy to find Laius’ killer.
Of course, Oedipus states that “finding Lauis’ murderer is self-serving” but in the sense that he is one with his people and that his people’s welfare is his own. The only unambiguous choice is that Oedipus makes decisions not based on scientific or criminal research but on his religious beliefs and these command that the will of the gods be obeyed at all times.

The right answer is Divided the South into military districts.
All Southern states, but Tennessee (The state had already ratified the 14th amendment) were divided into 5 military districts. The Reconstruction Act designated new state constitutions aligned with the North's effort to Reconstruct the South, guaranteeing votes to African Americans and protecting order and the “rights of persons and property.”
