In 1870 President Hays made a deal to remove federal troops from the southern states.

Why did reconstruction end when Hayes became presiident?

Reconstruction effectively ended when Rutherford B. Hayes became president in 1877 due to the Compromise of 1877, which resolved the disputed 1876 election. As part of the compromise, Hayes agreed to withdraw federal troops from the South, effectively ending military oversight and support for Reconstruction efforts. This withdrawal allowed Southern states to regain control and implement laws that disenfranchised Black voters, leading to the establishment of Jim Crow laws and the systematic erosion of the rights gained during Reconstruction.


Who supported the early end to military reconstruction?

The early end to military reconstruction in the post-Civil War United States was primarily supported by Southern Democrats and some Northern Republicans, known as "Liberal Republicans." These groups believed that the Reconstruction policies were too harsh and that it was time to restore home rule to the South. The Compromise of 1877, which resolved the disputed 1876 presidential election, effectively led to the withdrawal of federal troops from Southern states, marking the end of military reconstruction.
