In President Andrew Johnson's view, the Freedmen's Bureau was

a meddlesome agency that should be killed.

In 1867, Secretary of State Seward achieved the Johnson administration's greatest success in foreign relations when he

purchased Alaska from Russia.

The Freedmen's Bureau was

an agency created by Congress to provide food, education, and other assistance to freed slaves and poor whites.

The white South viewed the Freedmen's Bureau as

a threat to their dominance over freed blacks.

As a politician, Andrew Johnson developed a reputation as

a champion of the poor whites.

The controversy surrounding the Wade-Davis Bill and the readmission of the Confederate states to the Union demonstrated

the deep differences between President Lincoln and Congress.

In his 10 percent plan for Reconstruction, President Lincoln promised

rapid readmission of Southern states into the Union.

That the Southern states were "conquered provinces" and therefore at the mercy of Congress for readmission to the Union was the view of

the Radical Republicans.

In contrast to Radical Republicans, moderate Republicans generally

agreed with Lincoln that the Southern states should be restored to the Union as simply and swiftly as reasonable.

When it came to Reconstruction, President Johnson

seemed to agree with Lincoln’s ideas.

The Black Codes enacted by Southern legislatures

aimed to ensure a stable and subservient labor supply.

The Black Codes provided for all of the following except

a ban on black ownership of land.

The Black Codes had the effect of

limiting the economic opportunities and civil rights of freed people.

The passage of the Black Codes by Southern legislatures indicated

that white Southerners were not yet willing to accept freedom for African Americans.

The most serious consequence of the Black Codes was

their restriction of the freedom of African Americans.

One feature of the Black Codes was

harsh vagrancy laws that forced many blacks into labor contracts.

In President Johnson’s veto of the bill to extend the Freedmen’s Bureau and his opposition to the Civil Rights Bill, Republicans

feared that the South would regain control of the Union.

The first ex-Confederate state to ratify the Fourteenth Amendment and be readmitted to the Union under congressional Reconstruction was

Tennessee.

The Fourteenth Amendment guaranteed

citizenship and civil rights to freed slaves.

The Fourteenth Amendment

prohibited former Confederates from holding public office.

The Fourteenth Amendment

did not grant voting rights to freedmen.

The Reconstruction Act

divided the South into five military districts.

The Reconstruction Act

required that Southern states ratify the Fourteenth Amendment.

The primary purpose of the Reconstruction Act was to

provide a legal mechanism for Southern states’ reentry into the Union.

The Fifteenth Amendment

guaranteed black males the right to vote.

The root cause of the battle between Congress and President Andrew Johnson was

Johnson’s soft treatment of the white South.

The official charge that the House of Representatives used to impeach President Johnson was his

removal of Secretary of War Stanton contrary to the Tenure of Office Act.

President Johnson was impeached and then acquitted when

seven Republican senators broke with the party and voted not guilty.

All of the following were reasons that the Senate voted to acquit Andrew Johnson except

Johnson’s promise to stop obstructing Republican policies.

The "Seward’s Folly" of 1867 refers to

the American purchase of Alaska.

During Reconstruction, the Southern states' economies

were devastated and slow to recover.

During Reconstruction, African American communities

built strong churches and schools.

The Ku Klux Klan

was a secret organization to terrorize African Americans.

To prevent black people from voting, Southern whites used

intimidation, literacy tests, and poll taxes.

Radical Reconstruction state governments

expanded public education and other social services.

After Reconstruction ended

many of the changes were reversed by white supremacists.

Reconstruction might have been more successful if

Thaddeus Stevens’s radical program of economic reforms and protection of political rights had been enacted.
