Answer:

The South responded to the tariff of 1828 by calling it the "Tariff of Abominations".

Explanation:

In 1828, the Congress approved the "tariff of abominations", a crushing and harsh tariff that explicitly sacrificed the south of the country against the economic interests of the north. Northern manufacturers got almost all the benefits of protection, while southern farmers were forced to pay higher prices for comparatively lower US products and lost their cotton export markets due to foreign reprisals against the United States. This situation gave birth to the Nullification Crisis.

The nullification crisis of 1832/1833 was a political conflict in the United States during the presidency of Andrew Jackson. The subject of the crisis was the question of whether a single state had the right to nullify federal laws within its state borders.

The cause of the crisis were the tariff laws of 1828 and 1832, which introduced high protective tariffs for industrial products in favor of the mainly growing industry in the north, and encountered resistance in the agricultural South. Resistance to tariffs and a political tradition that saw the Union as an alliance of sovereign states led to the popularity of South Carolina's doctrine of nullification. According to it, a state was allowed to nullify laws that it considered unconstitutional, thereby invalidating them.

President Andrew Jackson responded by calling for further tariff reductions by Congress, but at the same time publicly attacking South Carolina and the doctrine of nullification and threatening to use military force. The slave-holding countries of the South did not support South Carolina in their nullification, but made it clear they wanted to prevent a war in any case. Under the leadership of Henry Clay, a compromise was finally found. He envisaged further lowering of tariffs and the withdrawal of South Carolina's nullification.

The main way in which these two were related is that the Nullification Crisis stemmed from federal tariffs, which South Carolina deemed unfair and unconstitutional because they limited trade.
