Explain two ways in which sectionalism caused conflict or tension in the united states during the early 1800s. then explain how sectionalism affect economics and politics and united states today.

the two ways in which sectionalism created conflict or tension in the 1800’s was:

1.       there were no slaves in the north and they had more industries. the south had more slaves and they believed in agriculture to be their main economy.

2.       the north wanted to produce the things needed by the people of the south, but the people living in the south wanted finer materials from abroad.

in the modern era also there is a conflict between the people in the north and the south of us. the people in the south votes for the republicans due to their conservative nature while people in the north being more liberal votes for the democrats.

i believe that the answer to the question provided above is that  establishing smaller ethnic communities within larger communities  gives more chance for people to know each other more but this might lead to the  conflict between groups.
