Answer 1

The Nullification Crisis and its resolution foreshadowed the Civil War as A. South Carolina challenged federal authority over the states by declaring a federal tariff void, but the president and Congress maintained that federal authority was supreme.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nullification crisis is termed as a political crisis in the U.S. in 1832-1833. During this time the nation witnessed the conflict between South Carolina and the federal government. The conflict rose from the declaration that South Carolina made with regards to the Tariffs. South Carolina made a claim that the tariffs are unconstitutional and hence the sovereign bodies must be exempted. They said efforts of using violence to collect taxes would end in the separation of the country.
