Question

What were the goals of the bourbon triumvirate ?

Answer 1

The Bourbon Triumvirate was made up of three men, all powerful politicians in the late 1800s. Their names were John Gordon, Joseph Brown, and Alfred Colquitt. All three were white supremacists. Their goal was to industrialize the south so it would be as successful as the north, but at the same time, they wanted to keep slavery in place in order to increase their profits. Another goal was to keep government small so that it would't be required to provide a lot of services to the people.
