Several disputes a rose between President Abraham Lincoln in Congress regarding who has a responsibility to develop a reconstruction plan for the south. According to Lincoln the South had rebelled, not (surrendered,seceded or revolted.) Therefore he felt that as President of the United States, he alone had the authority to enforce laws and reconstruct the South. Congress view the south as a defeated military territory. Congress exercised (constitutional, social, or political) control over such (neighboring, foreign or federal) territories.
