Chapter 13 Section 1 Main Idea: The Civil War took a huge physical and human toll on the South. 1. War had destroyed 2/3 of Southern shipping and 9,000 miles of railroad 2. South lost 1/5 of its adult white men 3. Countless civilian death 4. Result in the South being left in ruins Main Idea: Three major groups of people faced hardships and fears. 1. Black southerners often found themselves homeless, jobless and hungry 2. Plantation owners lost slave labor, faced property seizure by the federal gov’t and often had to sell their property to cover debt 3. Poor white southerners often could not find work and many migrated to frontier land Main Idea: Identify the 4 proposals in Lincoln’s Ten Percent Plan for Reconstruction. 1. It offered a pardon, an official forgiveness of a crime, to any Confederate who would take an oath of allegiance to the Union and accept federal policy on slavery 2. It denied pardons to all Confederate military and government officials and to southerners who had killed African American war prisoners. 3. It permitted each state to hold a constitutional convention only after 10 percent of voters in the state had sworn allegiance to the Union 4. States could then hold elections and resume full participation in the Union. Main Idea: Identify the 4 provisions in Johnson’s Presidential Reconstruction. 1. It pardoned southerners who swore allegiance to the Union. 2. It permitted each state to hold a constitutional convention (without Lincoln’s percent allegiance requirement) 3. States were required to void secession, abolish slavery, and ratify the Thirteenth Amendment 4. States could then hold elections and resume participation in the Union. Main Idea: Newly freed slaves began rebuilding their lives, and the government helped them. 1. African Americans in the South set up their own churches 2.
