...During the mid-nineteenth century, the south permitted and defended slavery as oppose to northerners and other European countries. Southerners believed that slaves was the key for their stern production of cotton, the basis of their economy. Whereas the northern moral disagreed toward slavery, even though slave’s benefited everyone, except slaves. These different beliefs led up to the inevitable breakup of the Union. Throughout history the concept of slavery had conflicting views about treatment and advantages towards African Americans, up to the point that the north and the south were at the brink of war. Certain citizen’s believed African Americans faced racial prejudice in the the north no less than in the south which came to light the change that need’s to be done concerning slavery.

...The relationship between the North and the South was tenuous when Andrew Jackson came to office in 1828. Ever since the Constitutional Convention of 1787, they had been fighting over slavery and tariffs. Each region wanted to make sure their economies were protected in the new Union. In 1828, the issue of tariffs surfaced again. Congress passed a tariff on imported, primarily manufactured, goods (Text, 299). The South saw this tariff as an affront to their economy. Vice President John C. Calhoun stated in his pamphlet The South Carolina Exposition and Protest that he believes the states should have the power to determine if laws passed by Congress are constitutional (Text, 299). South Carolina declared that Congress was overstepping its power by offering such support of the North’s manufacturing industries.

In 1832, after the passage of another tariff, South Carolina approved an Ordinance of Nullification (Text, 299). The Ordinance stated that taxes on imports would not be collected in South Carolina and...

...property than a person even though they are also living human beings like the white folks. Bruises, sprained ankles, and new or past scars were the punishment made by their owners if the black folks don’t obey. The white men would rely on black people because they were useful, they would get the job done, and the owners wouldn’t have to break a sweat to accomplish a task. This led to a disagreement between the North and South. Slavery was such a big issue. The North was anti-slavery while the south was for slavery. In the end, the Southerners seceded from the Union because the North outnumbered the South, Lincoln became president, and Uncle Tom’s Cabin was published. The graphs in document two showed a huge difference between the North and South. The North was two times greater than the South in everything. In the population graph the North had about 23,000,000 people compared to the 8,000,000 Southerners. That’s a 15,000,000 difference in only population. They also had about a 1,500,000 difference in soldiers. The North had about 100,000 more factories than the South. Lastly, railroads was a big deal. Railroads was the main transportation technology...
