In the 1800s, D: The Democratic Party was revived by opponents of Reconstruction.

The Democratic Party was the main party in the South before the Civil War which meant that they supported slavery.

With the defeat of the Southern States in the Civil War, the Democratic party lost support. Reconstruction however, angered many whites in the South because:

  • It allowed Black Americans to gain office
  • Black Americans had significant civil rights
  • Southern states felt marginalized by the North

All these allowed the Democratic party to be resurrected as people opposed to Reconstruction began to support them in massive numbers.

Conclusively speaking therefore, the Democratic Party was revived by opponents of Reconstruction.
