Introduction
The United States is a country that has come a long way to
current America we see today. It has gone through civil wars,
social rearrangements, and economic turbulence that saw the
reconstruction of the country into a union. This involves
contingency legislation that saw the integration of the African
Americans, revolutionizing of the manufacturing, transport and
communication sectors improving the status of the united states
and the gaining of interest and influence to and beyond North
America over the nineteenth century (Coston, 2018). Through
the success and attaining of economic and political stability, the
US begun to focus on conquering external emperors while
fighting with the European powers over territorial influence and
colonial possession become evident. This article outlines the
legal and social reconstruction that took place in the US, how
industrialization and imperialism made the US become an
international power and gain influence in the late nineteenth

century.
Social and legal reforms for revolution
Reconstruction of the USA occurred majorly after the end of the
civil war in many parts of the country. Many of the reforms that
were instituted, especially by Congress, were aimed at
addressing the factors that led to the emergence of the civil war
in America. The most important reforms that were instituted
during this period, especially in the southern economy was the
issue of turning it from being slavery dependent economy to a
state where slaves would be free and have rights (Du Bois
2017). These changes gained a major boosted through
amendments to the constitution to recognize and strengthen
these rights. The civil war dealt a major blow to the agricultural
sector, in which plantations were damaged, and the
sharecropping of the landowners and slaves leading to
impoverization of the slaves and reduced output of the slave
masters. The reforms sought to integrate the people of South
America with those of the north in order to protect the status of
the freedmen and make them be recognized by their masters.
However, the southerners saw the northerners as taking
advantage of the situation and ended up cutting the ties that had
been established by Black Codes and reverted to use of slaves
for labor (Dunleavy, 2014).
The second phase of the legal reform happened when
radical Republicans pushed for the punishment of the south,
although politicians such as Abraham Lincoln suggested
leniency in dealing with them, they pushed for 14th antislavery
amendments which saw the Republican take control over
Congress with this tension coming to an end when the Congress
regained prominence as a result of the infighting among
Republicans in 1874, which signaled the end of reconstruction
where the slaves rights were penned down in written form (Pino
& Witt 2019).
Industrialization and imperialism
American Imperialism refers to the economic, military and
cultural influence of the US over other countries, which was

boosted greatly by industrialization. Industrialization lead to
businessmen to seek new market internationally to sell their
goods. The growing influence of the Darwinism leads to the
belief that America was the propelling of the concept of the
industry, democracy, and Christianity which would savage less
developed societies, fueled the US towards imperialism. The
imperialism was majorly based on the belief that America was
entirely different from other countries due to its commitment to
liberty and democracy (Tully 2016). It began with the drawing
of the constitution, the subjection of people to alien rule, all the
way to the second world war which made American control
countries in the middle east and Germany (Dunleavy, 2014).
America, in 1898 gained military control of Hawaiian ports,
buildings that had military equipment and eventually it was
conquered and become an American state in 1959. In addition,
American progressively intervened in the wars in various
nations, making it pick rivalry with the European nations,
especially Spain, which strengthened the conquering psyche
(Morefield, 2014).

General comments:
3/5/2019 This thoughtful submission explains how the passage
of the 14th Amendment, Black Codes and
sharecropping system contributed to race relations during
Reconstruction and describes how urbanization
was a consequence of industrialization. The essay adequately
explains the Social Gospel Movement that
promoted Christianity to find solutions to social problems and
describes how Labor Reform helped define
the Progressive Era. The passage of the 19th Amendment
providing women the right to vote is discussed
and there is a satisfactory presentation explaining US
imperialism through the annexation of Hawaii and
Spanish American War. Fully developed discussions describing
a second consequence of industrialization
and describing a second reform Movement that helped define

the Progressive Era are not apparent.
