The south’s resentment of the tariffs of the american system was an example a-compromise b-states’ rights c-sectionalism d-federalism.

The correct answer is C) Sectionalism

Sectionalism is a term that usually refers to the conflicts between two different sections of the United States before the Civil War. This includes the North and the South. Before the Civil War, politicians from Northern and Southern states constantly fought over political power on a state and national level.

One of their fights was over tariffs. Tariffs are taxes on imported goods. The goal of implementing a tariff is to protect American businesses and to increase American citizens to buy goods made in the US. This tariff is supposed to help American businessmen. At this time, a majority of these men were in the North. However, this tariff would hurt thousands of Southern farmers. This is due to the fact that many Southerners made their living off selling goods (like cotton) to European countries who would trade with them. When the tariff threatened to take place, this caused an uproar from Southerners who knew that these tariffs would reduce the amount of trade between the Southern states and other countries.

C- Sectionalism.

Explanation:

Sectionalism refers to the powerful division that took place between the north and south leading citizens to be loyal to the area in which they were.

The Sectional Tariff of 1824 was a protecting tariff designed to preserve the American industry from competitive British goods, particularly iron products, textiles, and agricultural products.

This tariff brought the sectional interests of the North and the South into a strong conflict. Henry Clay promoted his American System, the philosophy responsible for the Tariff. John C. Calhoun represented the Southern position, stating that the protective tariff was a scheme that served the North´s interests at the expense of the South, which depended on foreign-produced goods and cotton exportation.
