The fighting ended with the surrender of the conventional Confederate forces.There was no significant guerrilla warfare.Many senior Confederate leaders escaped to Europe or Mexico; Davis was captured and imprisoned for two years,but never brought to trial.
Northern leaders agreed that victory would require more than the end of fighting.It had to encompass the two war goals:Confederate nationalism had to be totally repudiated,and all forms of slavery had to be eliminated.They disagreed sharply on the criteria for these goals.They also disagreed on the degree of federal control that should be imposed on the South,and the process by which Southern states should be reintegrated into the Union.
Reconstruction,which began early in the war and ended in 1877,involved a complex and rapidly changing series of federal and state policies.The long-term result came in the three "Civil War" amendments to the Constitution (the XIII,which abolished slavery,the XIV,which extended federal legal protections to citizens regardless of race,and the XV,which abolished racial restrictions on voting).In 1877 federal intervention ended and the "Jim Crow" era began.
The war had a lasting impact on American politics and culture.For decades after the war,Northern Republicans "waved the bloody shirt," bringing up wartime casualties as an electoral tactic.Memories of the war and Reconstruction held the segregated South together as a Democratic block—the "Solid South"—in national politics for another century.The Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s had its neoabolitionist roots in the failure of Reconstruction.Ghosts of the conflict still persist in America.A few debates surrounding the legacy of the war continue,especially regarding memorials and celebrations of Confederate heroes and battle flags.The question is a deep and troubling one:Americans with Confederate ancestors cherish the memory of their bravery and determination,yet their cause is also tied to the history of African American slavery.
