The correct answer is “Protected tariffs”

The American System was an economic plan that was written by Henry Clay and other politicians - John C Calhoun and John Quincy Adams - and aimed to strengthen and to unify the American Nation.

The plan consisted of many policies, such as tariffs to protect America’s industries, establish a national bank with a single currency that made trade easier and also improve the country’s infrastructure.

Those tariffs would raise funds so internal improvements could be made, one of them would be the transportation networks that would link the Midwest and North.

Lelechka [254]

I think it becomes difficult because they all wanted to have more advantages than anyone else, that became too much for the country that they defeated. The Potsdam Conference became difficult because they have problems on the things that they should do with Germany that they want to completely disarm the country.

Question: How did the debate over slavery divide the country and lead

romanna [79]

Answer:

The debate of slavery divided the country because of this lead to the civil war. The south was built on the principles of slavery, needing them to work and serve on plantations. The north was built on opportunities and chances relying on urbanisation. When Abraham Lincoln became president he set off to free the slaves " Being free is a human right" this angered many southerners who believed that slaves were less then humans. The south seceded the north because of this which sparked the civil war.
