I believe the answer is:
- to protect the rights of African Americans
- to unite the country without granting Southern states too much power

During the reconstruction, the president of united states mandated former slave owners to give some part of their land as a rightful properties for the former slaves. To fulfill this operation, the northern states deployed some of their soldiers in the south to prevent the second uprising.
