Answer:

Ku Klux Act.

Martial law.

Heavy penalties against terrorist organizations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The South lost its battle in the Civil War but did not lose its spirit when it came to deal with the North people and former slaves. The Confederate veterans organised the Ku Klux Klan after the reconstruction period and scared Republican and African Americans. The main agenda was to bring back the white supremacy. As they began to grow powerful and fearless in the South, President Ulysses S. Grant issued Acts to suppress state disorders. The Third Force Act or Ku Klux Act issued in 1871 that led to martial law in southern states. Thousands of KKK members arrested.
