Answer:
1. The South Carolina representatives vote to...

2. President Jackson is furious about...
- <em>Why: </em>Jackson, oh Jackson. What an unconventional guy. He was an advocate of states' rights at times, but he also had no problems with grabbing the reins and controlling unruly states. He threatened to use federal power, and they eventually succumbed, but this was very controversial.
3. As Jackson raises an army to back up...
- <em>Why: </em>SC realizes that it can't hold up against a federal army, so it backs down.
4. The South Carolina convention decides to accept...
- <em>Why: </em>Congress makes a compromise with SC by allowing it a lower tariff. Obviously this would annoy Jackson, because he didn't want to be undermined, but eventually this led to peace, for now.
