Respuesta :

In the early and mid-1800s, sectionalism was strongest "in the south, where people supported slavery to increase farming profits".

Sectionalism in the 1800s The North and the South's various ways of life, social systems, traditions, and political beliefs are together referred to as "America." Between 1800 and 1850, sectionalism rapidly expanded as the North urbanised, industrialised, and built profitable factories while the deep South focused on plantation agriculture based on slave labour and subsistence farming for low-income white people who did not own slaves. The argument put out by Southerners to maintain slavery was that Northern factory workers suffered from harsher working conditions and poor employer care. Factory workers were referred to as the "white slaves of the North" by abolitionists.
