RESULTS OF THE CIVIL WAR The Union was preserved Slavery ended Emancipation in rebellious states Thirteenth Amendment ratified in 1865 Lincoln assassinated

RESULTS OF THE CIVIL WAR (II) Economic shift in the U.S. Wealth transferred from the South to the North Southern economy left a shambles Northern industrial economy grew dramatically Numerous government contracts for goods Revised banking standards

WAGING PEACE Numerous questions arose 1.Who will be in charge of Reconstruction? 2.How will Southern states re-enter the Union? 3.What will be done with former Confederate officials? 4.How should the Southern political and economic structure be formed? 5.What will be done with the Freedmen?

THE 10% PLAN Floated by Lincoln in 1863 States readmitted to the Union when: 10% of the voting population of 1860 swore allegiance to the U.S. Swore to support emancipation Supported the Freedmen’s Bureau

CONGRESSIONAL RECONSTRUCTION Wade-Davis Bill States could re-enter the Union when: 50% of voters swore they never supported the Confederacy Demanded guarantees of racial equality Pocket Vetoed by Lincoln

PRESIDENTIAL RECONSTRUCTION Proposed by Andrew Johnson Supported the 10% Plan Required states to ratify the 13 th Amendment Did not support the Freedmen’s Bureau

FREEDMEN’S BUREAU Agency designed to help former slaves and poor whites Provided health care, education, and basics Fueled by Northern abolitionists and Free Blacks Began during the war Reauthorization in 1866 vetoed by President Johnson Veto overridden by Congress
