Reconstruction Ends

This is an image showing the Compromise of 1877.

Why did Reconstruction come to an end in 1877?
     The Reconstruction came to an end in 1877 when the Compromise of 1877 came along. This was an informal deal that helped to ensue peace after the 1876 Presidential election. The Compromise had the US Government pull its troops out of the South in order to formally end the Reconstruction Era. The Democrats held behind the door meetings and helped to influence the Presidential Election between Hayes and Tilden.
