In the years after the civil war, southern society most valued
a-infrastructure.
b-government.
c-entrepreneurship.
d-land ownership.

The correct answer is D) Land ownership.

Many Southerners, both black and white, viewed land ownership as an essential part of being an American citizen. This is due to the fact land ownership allows for individual freedom and choice. For example, an individual who owns a farm has the ability to generate their own food, create their own work schedule, etc. This gives the person complete control over their schedule which was a highly desired lifestyle at this time.
