In the wake of the Bay of Pigs invasion, tensions between the United States and Cuba rose to a fever pitch. Now aware of just how far the Kennedy Administration would go to depose him, Fidel Castro turned to the Soviet Union for assistance. In return, the Soviets began sneaking nuclear missiles into Cuba, which were pointed at the Cuban shores and Florida. In the case of a US invasion of the island, Castro was prepared not only to launch missiles at the US mainland, but also to nuke his own shores to cripple any invading forces. The stockpiling of missiles in Cuba led to the Cuban Missile Crisis between the US and the USSR. Despite the fact that Kennedy proclaimed he ended the crisis and had the missiles removed from Cuba, the Cuban military retained the missiles pointed at their shores just in case of a US invasion.

Answer:
- cotton
- antislavery
- tariff
Explanation:
The North and the South had went into different directions relatively soon after their formation. They were dependent on each other economically, mostly because of the products such as cotton, but their political and trade views differed a lot. The North was supportive of the antislavery, while the South was supportive of the slavery. The reason behind this is that the North was much closer ideologically with England, and also didn't really needed the labor force of the slaves. The South on the other hand desperately needed the labor force of the slaves for its vast farmlands, so it was supporting the slavery. The North also was supportive of the tariffs, while the South wasn't. The North was supporting the tariffs as it was good for its economic development, while the South had losses because of the tariffs so understandably it was against them.
