Nullification Crisis (1h 28min, may 19, 1828 y – 12h 6min, mar 15, 1833 y)
Description:
A high protective tariff(or tax) was signed into law by the U.S government. South Carolinians-specifically John C. Calhoun strongly disagreed with the high tariff and felt that they target the South unfairly. South Carolina nullified the federal law, calling it unconstitutional until a"force bill" was threatened which would bring the national army into the state to make sure the law was followed. A compromise took place. South Carolina would pay the tax if the U.S government lowered the tax. The U.S Government would not send troops if South Carolina Agreed to pay lower tax.
