Question

How did South Carolina’s decision to secede affect Louisiana and the rest of the southern states?

Answer 1

Answer:

Im not 100% sure so if im wrong im sorry i think its B

Explanation:

When South Carolina seceded from the Union, the action was the first domino to fall so to speak. Emboldened by the South Carolina decision, the other states that would eventually make up the Confederate States of America- Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas and Tennessee- followed this example and broke away from the U.S.

Answer 2

I would agree that it’s B, if not then definitely D. These are the only logical options.

When South Carolina seceded and withdrew from the Union out of fear, many southern states followed (ten to be exact). By 1861, the Confederacy had been formed to fight against the U.S during the American Civil War. They did so as an attempt to establish a new nation by breaking away from the existing agreement with the North. They hoped the authority of the central government would be strictly limited and the institution of slavery would be protected. Overall, it caused a lot of division between both sides and created a lot of chaos within the U.S.
