The West --- Sympathized with the student protestors
Explanation:
The Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 consisted of a series of demonstrations led by students in the People's Republic of China, which took place between April 15 and June 4, 1989. The protest is named after the place where the People's Liberation Army suppressed the mobilization: Tiananmen Square, in Beijing. The protesters came from different groups, from intellectuals who believed that the Communist Party government was too repressive and corrupt, to city workers who believed that economic reforms in China had gone too far and that inflation and unemployment were threatening their ways of life.
Southern congressmen opposed James Tallmadge’s proposed
amendments to the Missouri statehood bill in 1819 because the amendments would
have made Missouri a free state. This made the amendments controversial and a
threat to sectional political harmony which was essential to achieve consensus.
