Answer:

anger over tariffs

limits on voting rights

spread of slavery into new states

Step-by-step explanation:

Sectionalism is the practice of identifying the social, political, economic, and social interests of a particular geographic area within the United States. Americans recognized the thirteen colonies' ability to be divided into the southern, central, and New England sections during the American Revolution. Edmund Randolph of Virginia suggested a three-person government for the United States during the Constitutional Convention in 1787, with officials chosen from all throughout the nation. When Gouverneur Morris proposed a scheme for allocating congressional seats that supported the eastern states over the new western republics, thereby ensuring eastern control of the country's future, he expressed eastern fears of a rising western region. Randolph and Morris did not receive support for their suggestions, and the North and South's initial sectional conflict was resolved by the customary exchange of counting slaves for congressional seats. There was no official acknowledgment of segments in the ensuing Constitution of 1787. In contrast to areas, the Constitution envisioned the new nation as a league of states.
