I took the test and the correct answer is B.)If the government could force them to pay tariffs, it could force them to give up slavery.
With war, every country is afraid. They're afraid of possibly being ambushed, becoming in dept, and many other reasons. So by remaining neutral they can sit back and not have to worry about being attacked by any country that's fighting. But that's not always the case now and days. Hope I answered your question correctly.
