<h2>The KKK was a racist group of people, mostly men. They believed in nationalism, of sorts. They thought that the blacks were disgusting, so they needed to pay with either death or torture. This is the reason most people think southern people are racist nowadays. The KKK was derived from the Greek word kyklos, meaning “circle,” and the Scottish-Gaelic word “clan,” which was probably chosen for the sake of alliteration.</h2>
Federalism is the distribution of power between a central authority and constituent units, such as the federal government in Washington DC and the states. Article V of the constitution allows for the creation of constitutional amendments via an act of Congress, or by the application of a majority of the states. In this case, both the states and the central authority are able to make necessary changes without the consent of the other.
The correct answer is South Carolina.
South Carolina threatened to secede (aka leave) the Union after the Tariffs of 1828 and 1832 because these hurt the trade relationship between South Carolina and European countries like Great Britain. A tariff is a tax on an imported good. This increases the price of foreign goods. When a tariff is put on foreign goods, usually other countries are less likely to trade with different US states.
This is why South Carolina threatened to leave, as these tariffs hurt their trade relations with other countries.
