In the US the 13 colonies declared independence from Britain in 1776 was definitely progress for the American people as now they controlled their own destiny including trade and what products they produced. The French Revolution of 1789-1799 emancipated the French from the aristocracy and began a new era of more democratic government. The Industrial Revolution from about 1760-1840 disrupted people's lives dramatically especially in Britain where it all started so that people had to become accustomed to working in say textile factories and coal mines enduring extreme exploitation, especially of children and women and no longer having a much more peaceful existence of cottage sewing industries etc. But on the positive side, the Industrial Revolution was accommpanied by an explosion of scientific discoveries and innovations to production like the steam engine, more advanced spinning jennies etc.

after the civil war, and with the termination of slavery, the south was faced with a big problem; what was supposed to happen and how they were supposed to deal with the freedom and the rights that black people and freed slaves had gained as a result of the north defeating the south and forcing the end of slavery. first, most, if not all, of the workforce of the south came from slaves and they did not have an option to replace the loss of said workforce. second, particularly in the south, people were convinced that black people were lesser, less intelligent, less capable and less smart than whites. this posed a huge problem for them. also, southerners were faced with another issue; freed slaves now had a say in how their lives would be lived and the right to politically choose the way they would be governed. people in the south did not want to accept this, none of this and this opposition and the conflicts that arose from it, not to mention the afereffects of the war, forced the congress of the time to enact and enforce the reconstruction plans that had been proposed by president andrew johnson.
