Question

9 what was an effect of georgias delay in being readmitted to the union after the initial expulsion of african american legislators in 1867 after the civil war? a prolonged military intervention and oversight in georgia. b increase in agricultural production. c immediate legal reforms across the state. d recognition as a sovereign state.

Explanation:

After the Civil War, during Reconstruction, Georgia's expulsion of African American legislators violated Reconstruction policies. A delay in readmission would lead the federal government to extend military oversight (as part of Reconstruction to enforce civil rights and proper governance). Option B is incorrect as agricultural production was disrupted by war and Reconstruction challenges. Option C is wrong because the delay showed resistance to reform, not immediate legal reforms. Option D is incorrect as states in the Union aren’t sovereign in the way implied (the US is a union of states under federal authority). So the correct effect is prolonged military intervention.

Answer:

A. Prolonged military intervention and oversight in Georgia.
