The correct answer is N. The natural barrier crossed by the army of José de San Martín and Bernardo O'Higgins to liberate Chile from Spanish rule was the Andes.

The Crossing of the Andes was a set of maneuvers made by the Army of the Andes of the United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata (today's Argentina), between January 12 and February 8, 1817, to cross with a force of 4000 regular soldiers and 1200 militiamen the Andes mountain range from the Argentine region of Cuyo to Chile, and face the realistic troops loyal to the Spanish Crown that were there. It was part of the plan that General José de San Martín developed to carry out the Liberating Expedition of Argentina, Chile and Peru.

The crossing of the Andes is considered one of the great historical facts of Argentina, as well as one of the greatest feats of the universal military history.

Strong central government

Its equivalent in a federation is the federal government, which may have distinct powers at various levels authorized or delegated to it by its federated states, though the adjective 'central' is sometimes also used to describe it. The structure of central governments vary.

Taxation

During the 19th century the prevalent idea was that taxes should serve mainly to finance the government. In earlier times, and again today, governments have utilized taxation for other than merely fiscal purposes. One useful way to view the purpose of taxation, attributable to American economist Richard A. Musgrave, is to distinguish between objectives of resource allocation, income redistribution, and economic stability.

Prior to the Civil War, over which issue did President Andrew Jackson threaten to send U.S. Troops into South Carolina?

harina [27]

South Carolina was a state controlled by slaveholding planters where slaves were a majority of the population, worried that the same federal authority used to impose tariffs might ultimately be used to end slavery. If Congress could create taxes to benefit northern industries, the governor of South Carolina claimed, it could also outlaw slavery.

In November 1832 a South Carolina state convention adopted an ordinance of nullification repudiated two federal tariffs designed to protect the northern industries. In this action against the federal forces, South Carolina stood alone since most of the southern expressed sympathy but none endorsed nullification.

President Andrew Jackson sent federal soldiers to South Carolina, where the nullifies mobilized the state militia. In 1833 the president requested from Congress a "force bill" authorizing him to use the army, and, at the same time, he supported a bill in the Congress that would have lowered tariff duties substantially within two years.

On March 1, 1833, Congress passed the agreement tariff and the force bill, and the next day Jackson signaled both. Both sides were able to claim victory. Jackson had supported the supremacy of the Union, and South Carolina had defended a reduction of the federal tariff.
