Answer:

B. It was returned to the Union by military force.

Step-by-step explanation:

South Carolina withdrew from the United States on December 20, 1860. The state seceded because a Republican, Abraham Lincoln, had been elected president. The Republicans were a new party, and Lincoln was the first to be elected president. They wanted to stop slavery from spreading into the western territories.

Hope this helps, best out of choses
