The Nullification Crisis was a political dispute between South Carolina and the United States Federal government. The matter of dispute was the imposition of the famously known "tariff of abominations", that imposed a tax on 38% of all imported goods. South Carolina alleged that the tariff was very harmful to the development of the economy of the southern states and declared it unconstitutional.
The federal government saw this as a pretext for fomenting disunion and wanting to put the issue of slavery under negotiation.
On the other hand, the state other southern states, including Georgia, adopted a more conservative position and labeled South Carolina's position as a revolutionary act and highly precipitated.
The Dutch wanted to spread their Religion to the Americas, while the French and Americans wanted to colonize, and maybe even trade with the indigenous people. I hope this helps. :)
