    The Compromise of 1877 ended the election dispute over the election of 1876 and made Republican Rutherford B. Hayes the President of the United States in exchange for rapidly removing federal troops which had occupied the South since the end of the Civil War, as well as other concessions to Southern Democrats. It was an informal, unwritten agreement made by members of Congress and virtually ended the era of reconstruction. All aspects of the deal were quite shady.

    The compromise of 1877 refers to the unwritten deal that settled the 1876 US presidential election.
