Sectionalism is the idea that a person is loyal to the region in which they live rather than their country. This was seen in the United States, especially during the pre-Civil War years. During this time, also known as the antebellum era, many Northerners and Southerners identified themselves by the region they live rather than as Americans. This was caused by several different factors, one of the most prevelant being whether or not the institution of slavery should be expanded into new territories gained by the US during westward expansion.

During World War II, many Japanese-Americans were sent into internment camps thanks to Executive Order 9066.

After the attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese military, many members of the government and US citizens in general were paranoid that there would be another attack on America by the Japanese. To ensure that this attack did not happen, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066. This allowed for the removal of individuals from military areas. After this, internment camps were formed for Japanese-American citizens.
