Answer:
Scalawags were white Southern Republicans who worked with the carpetbaggers who were white Northern Republicans who came south, arriving with their travel carpetbags.
Step-by-step explanation:
The term Scalawag was originally a dialect expression of the southern United States for inferior cattle. After the Confederation's defeat in the Civil War, white sympathizers of the Republican Party were insulted as scalawags in the southern states. Behind the pandering to the former enemy they suspected Confederate statesmen opportunism, that is, the attempt to enrich themselves on the spoils of victory by reaching political positions.
Carpetbagger was a derogatory term for northerners who came to the south after the Civil War, especially during Reconstruction. Many southern states accused the northern states of coming to the south for low motives, namely, as profiteers of its defeat to enrich the population and economy of the north.
