Explanation:
After the American War of Independence, the leaders and founding members of the constitution created a weak central government in the Articles of Confederation due to the following reasons:
1. The leaders feared that a strong central government would revive a dictatorial government because of the experiences they had with the British Crown.
2. To avoid tax and tariffs from a central government that has nothing or very less to do with their economic lives. They firmly stood against 'taxation without representation' and believed that the central government cannot levy any taxes but only the state governments could.
3. They leaders wanted to protect the native rights of the people endowed by their own respective state governments. They feared that if too much of powers were given to the central government, it would take away some of their rights.

Answer:
1. The South Carolina representatives vote to...

2. President Jackson is furious about...
- <em>Why: </em>Jackson, oh Jackson. What an unconventional guy. He was an advocate of states' rights at times, but he also had no problems with grabbing the reins and controlling unruly states. He threatened to use federal power, and they eventually succumbed, but this was very controversial.
3. As Jackson raises an army to back up...
- <em>Why: </em>SC realizes that it can't hold up against a federal army, so it backs down.
4. The South Carolina convention decides to accept...
- <em>Why: </em>Congress makes a compromise with SC by allowing it a lower tariff. Obviously this would annoy Jackson, because he didn't want to be undermined, but eventually this led to peace, for now.
