Two emerging factors after the War of 1812 that contributed to development of sectionalism were "an increase in the number of men voting" and "the concept of manifest destiny," since both of these led to a more "aggressive" nation that was becoming more and more divided on how to exploit that aggression.

Few countries with authoritarian systems of government have achieved high levels of growth in the long term.
