Explain how the quotation below illustrates the radical republicans’ approach to reconstruction. be sure to use key vocabulary, details, and examples in your response. your response should be a minimum of three sentences in length. "we hold it to be the duty of the government to inflict condign [fitting] punishment on the rebel belligerents [fighters] .. . the whole fabric of southern society must be changed, and never can it be done if this opportunity is lost. . "

The quote demonstrates the idea that the South needed to be punished for their action of secession and warfare in addition, the government must take charge of the process to change and rebuild the South.

This was done through military occupation of the South and creation of occupation zones. The New South program brought industry to urban areas of the South to diversify the southern economy. The government required the acceptance of the Thirteenth Amendment meaning the South had to release slaves and end the practice. The Freedman's Bureau aided former slavers in obtaining land and their new rights as citizens. The Radical Republicans required states to write new Constitutions and perform loyalty pledges to return to the US as a full state.

an empire is a sovereign state functioning as an aggregate of nations or people that are ruled over by an emperor or another kind of monarch. the territory and population of an empire is commonly of greater extent than the one of a kingdom.[1]

an empire can be made solely of contiguous territories, such as the austro-hungarian empire or the russian empire, or of territories far remote from the homeland, such as a colonial empire. aside from the more formal usage, the word empire can also refer colloquially to a large-scale business enterprise (e.g. a transnational corporation), a political organisation controlled by a single individual (a political boss), or a group (political bosses).[2] the word empire is associated with such other words as imperialism, colonialism, and globalization. empire is often used to describe a displeasure to overpowering situations.[3]
