Answer 1

Answer: In 1865 the northern and southern economies starkly contrasted. The war had stimulated northern industrial development, creating a dynamic and prosperous society. Northern agriculture also prospered. In the South, devastation and destruction prevailed.

Answer 2

Answer: Black responses to their former masters varied, as evidenced by the reaction to the Allstons when they returned to take repossession of their plantations. In general, however, many blacks left the plantations (often only for a short period of time) in order to test their new freedom. Blacks also began to show less deference to whites as expressions of their new sense of self-worth.
