The American Historical Works
Part Six:
After President Abraham Lincoln was killed, in April 1865, his Vice President Andrew Johnson became President. Even though he was from the South(southern states), he had non-southern, Yankee(northern states) views, on racial matters. He was also against the South, in the American civil war. He also started off a poor person and worked his way to the top.
After the war, the South was under complete national political control of the United States of America, in the reconstruction (post civil war) period, including the removed states, which would include removed voting. By occupation, with soldiers, reminding in the South, to scare of Southern rebellion. However, they were planned to have political power back, in the short term, along with the decrease of occupational soldiers. Which would end region, by region, rather than at once.
There were 2 political parties, by 1865, the Republican Party and the more racist, democratic Party. Southerners usually voted for democrats. A small amount of white republicans, thought racial discrimination should be banned and black people should be legally equal. However, most did not and thought there should just be a medium, or small amount of legal discrimination. Which they were, all across America. President Andrew Johnson, was a Republican, who supported medium discrimination.
The free black people, would identify as black people, instead of American people, people of their state or Southern people. There were cultural differences, between the culture of black people and American culture. This would be the view non-black people would have as well. However, both embraced Christianity. There would also be made schools, just for black boys and girls.
Elements of Black culture in America, was included to but not limited to, having fried chicken. However the biggest cultural difference between black and American culture was experiencing far more racism and formally being enslaved.
The black people of the time, were racist to white people. Based around white people being racist to them.
Also, after the killing President Lincoln, non-Southerners were sad, of their leaders death. Out of fear, Southern people would give their pity, to the former president. Soldiers of the United States of America, occupying the South, would force other Southerners, to send piety, to the former President.
After the Civil War, there at least a small amount, of legal former slave owners. Using violence, including killing, on former legal slaves, to scare them, into being slaves illegally.
Black people, were more likely to commit theft. This would be the case, long after, the reconstruction period. White Americans, at the time, thought it was due to mental differences, between black and white people. Black people often still worked in plantations and other jobs they were formerly enslaved at, with such jobs getting below average wages. If a black person choose to, or was forced to get a job, outside of the former slave master, in the South, when asking for a job, they were often not given the job, for being black, which was legal, leaving them jobless, with some starving to death.
Also, in the reconstruction period, there was a fear seemingly spread by propaganda that black people in positions of power would lead to rape. One theory was that if there were black principles in charge of schools with white students, would get their teachers, to help the principals to rape white students. This would make southerners, want black people, not legally allowed or given, in positions of power, even more, including black people being able to vote, so they could elected black politicians.
There was a fear, by many white Southern women, that they would be raped, by black men.
Even though, there was a slave ban, in the South. When no longer occupied, many Southern states, made laws. So black people, could be put into slave labour and sold to companies and people, for money, by the Southern states. In the form of very much harsher, then equal punishment, for black criminals. This was called convict leasing. Some of the buyers, bashed them, for misbehaving.
However, violent white on black criminals, or at least the sexual ones, would get, soft or no sentences and lack of police enforcement. It was similar, for sexually violent black on black criminals. This was all possibly due to those in government not wanting money spent on imprisonment. This was the case in both in the reconstruction period and generations afterwards.
Also, after the United States of America, freed the southern slaves, in the post Civil War era, there would be hate crimes, by anti-black extremist. Due to a considered lack of discrimination against black people, including black people being allowed in the military and a considered lack of strict punishment, in the south, of black on white criminals. These attacks killed black people, in the South. Which were based around, American and or state and or Southern pride.
A large amount, of the those in killed in anti-black killings, were black people, accused of crime on white people, including sexual assault and murder. The rest were black Unionist civil war veterans and other black civilians. The ones targeting civilians, not accused of crime, would be terrorism, under all definitions.
White Southerners, who believed in believed in no legal discrimination against black people, were also killed. As white people, while not being viewed a inferior life. They could vote, in elections, to insert their beliefs more, then black people. These acts, was also terrorism.
In Tennessee, a Southern state, with many anti-slavery pro-Unionist people. With violence, including killing, being committed, on a small amount, of confederate veterans, by some anti-slavery Unionists. With the soon to be governor, of Tennessee, banning confederate veterans, from voting.
In December, of 1865, slavery would be banned in slave states, that didn’t join the Confederate South. As well as the western territories. Ban slavery in America, with the possible expectation of convict leasing.
In the reconstruction period, a tiny amount, which was still over a few thousand, civil war Veterans, from both sides, would kill themselves. Largely due, to the psychological horrors, of war.
In the reconstruction period, lever action firearms, would begin to replace, the weaker firearms, muskets, for civilian use.
From the late 1860s-1880s, the Southern economy would become more industrial(factory) based.
United States general William Sherman, gave some former slaves, given up land of former plantations. By slave owners, in the east coast of the state of Georgia. With each slave family, getting 40 acres of land. However, Andrew Johnson, in October 1866, took back the land, for the National government.
In 1866, in the Southern state, of Arkansas, anti-black extremist, would do a unorganised massacre. Which killed 40 black people, including teenage and child ones.
Also in 1866, 12 confederate veterans formed the anti-black extremist group. The KKK(ku klax klan). In the state of Tennessee. It was also formed, in part, as retaliation for Tennessee voting laws.

In March 1867, the American territory of Nebraska was given statehood. That month America under Andrew Johnson, brought Alaska, off the Russian Empire. To become a colony like, American National territory, for $7.2 million. The Russians in Alaska, would leave to go back to the Russian Empire and a tiny amount of Americans, would start immigrating to Alaska.
In July 1868, over 30 equal legal rights protesters, who were mostly black. Were killed, by anti-black extremist. In a unorganised massacre, in a riot in Louisiana.
By 1868, dynamite was introduced to America. It would be used by farmers to clear stumps. Anyway America under Andrew Johnson, got certain explosive material banned. Also in 1868, the United states of America, made black people have minorly more rights, in the form of equal court protection.
In 1868, Andrew Johnson fried one of his minster like cabinet members, with no exercise. So the rest of the national government, began the impeachment (removing from power) process. As this was breaking the law, which could result in impeachment. However, the rest of the national government, only barely decided to not impeach him.
In 1868, a war called the Bosin War ended. It was in Japan and it was a Japanese civil war. It was over whether, or not America, should embrace American and European influence, through trade, sometimes in the form of Japan buying technology.
Japan’s trade, with the European nations, starting by America, forcing trade with Japan. Soon, Japan would get new military technology, from the trade and become a democracy. Japan would then use the European military technology, to invade and conquer the island of large island, of Hokkaido, off tribes, to be a part of Japan.

In 1868, America under Andrew Johnson, gave the Native American Union, the republic of Lakotah, independence. As of 2022, ever since the independence, America has ignored so:
Former general for the Untied States of America, in the American Civil War. Yankee, Ulysses Grant, became President after election in 1869. He would try to get more rights, for black people. Many of his minster like cabinet members, would turn out to be corrupt.
The recent ban on certain explosives, was replaced for the first laws regulating for all, in 1869. In 1869, gridiron(American football) was invented, in America. It would eventually be played all across the America.
By 1870, the population of America, was over 38 million people, including non-whites. While the farmers made up about 53% of workers, a decrease since 1850, due to increased farming technology. In the 1870s there would start to be increased specialisation of farming, as in a farmer would be doing less types of crops.

In 1870, the political power of the United States of America ended, over the southern states, which was included a decrease in occupational soldiers. However, some soldiers, were still stationed in the south.
However, most of the Southern states, would start creating, more discrimination laws, for black people. Which at the time, was former black slaves, freed by the United States of America. The laws would include a ban on black people owning guns, ban on black people marrying white people.
By the 1870s, a thing called sharecropping appeared across the South. In which black workers in the plantations, owned by rich Southerners, got black workers to have to pay the plantation owners in crops, they helped harvest. In return for living on the plantations, as they did in slavery. However, if there was a poor harvest and did not get enough of the crops, to the plantation owner. The black workers, would have to be in debt, by promising to keep working on the plantation, unless they could pay off their debt, by giving the plantation owner extra crops, at one point. Which they almost never could.
In the 1870s, there started to be American immigration to Native American reverse territory, which as of 2022, located in Oklahoma. This took land of the native American tribes there.
In 1871, the Orange Riots occurred. Where Catholic extremists and Protestant extremists clashed in the Yankee state, of New York. Which would Kill over 50.
In 1873, America got its army to start hunting Buffalo near Native American tribes. To try and create a fear of starvation, on the tribes to give up their property land, to America and move to other land. This would eventually kill many Buffalo and make Buffalo a endangered species.
1873 Ulysses Grant, would get a 2nd term as president, after re-election, along with his minster like cabinet members.
Also in 1873, anti-black extremist rebels, would rebel, against the Louisiana militia. They would take over, the Louisianan state government. Then the American military, would take back the government and give it back, to the non-extremist.
By April of 1873 black identifiers, would do a armed occupation, of a courthouse, in Louisiana, for more voting rights there. Then anti-black extremist, would charge into the courthouse, to fight them. Sometimes killing them, while doing so and then kill those who retreated and surrendered. In total 150 of the black occupiers, died.
In 1873, there was a recession( decrease in economy) caused by, a stock market crash. This would result in republicans losing votes. As well as them focusing, more on fixing the economy, instead of black rights, in the short term.
In 1875, in Clinton, which was a town Southern state of Mississippi, there was a republican party rally. So anti-black extremists shot and killed 8 of the rally members, both black and white. Then afterwards, anti-black extremists rioted, by shooting and killing 50 black people, in and around the town of Clinton.
In 1876, America was still using its military start conflicts, to take property land, off the native American tribes, in the western territories. In 1876, there was a battle between the Sioux tribe, with 1,500-2,000 soldiers and American forces of 600 soldiers. With army leader George Custer, leading the forces. The Sioux tribe defeated the American forces, in the battle, called battle of little Bighorn. A rare thing, to happen, between American forces and native American tribes.
In 1876, the national territory of Colorado, would be made into a state. Also the presidential election in 1876 would be very close, but republican Rutherford B. Hayes be elected. Soon the occupying soldiers in the South, by the United States of America, ended.
So then, the post civil war period would be over. However, killings on accused violent black on white criminals. Would go on, in the Southern states.
