Sectionalism

Sectionalism divides a country's loyalties according to the local interests of each section or region.
As an example, you could look at how different sections of the country might react to protective tariffs.  In the sectionalism that occurred in the Civil War era, the South was against tariffs because they relied on the import of British goods.  The North supported tariffs to protect their homegrown industries.
In the present moment in history, the US president recently announced a plan to impose heavy tariffs on steel imports.  That sort of policy is supported in areas like Pennsylvania where US steel production is centered.  But such tariffs are opposed in other sections of the country and other sectors of industry that rely on affordable steel in making their products -- such as automobiles.

Why was it so important to retain control of San Antonio, Texas?
Sedbober [7]
San Antonio was the seat of power for the Tejas area. Even though, Texas was not an individual state (it was part of the larger state of Coahuila y Tejas) it still had and did many of the things that other states did. THE size and population of Texas demanded that it have a more local regional government than the one located hundreds of miles away in Coahuila. The city became even more sought after during the Revolution. Santa Anna thought that taking San Antonio would help to squash the rebellion. However the Battle of the Alamo became an inspiration for the Texians and Tejanos fighting for freedom.
