Full Faith and Credit issues arose when different states had different policies on various subjects. The problem was to require the states to respect the laws of other states. An interesting problem was always related to full faith and credit of marriage laws. First, marriages among races were not recognized in some states. An example of that problem now is the requirement that one state recognize the same-sex marriages which are legal in other states. The requirement for full faith and credits prevents the various states from getting too far apart and beginning to look like separate countries. The Supreme Court of the United States resolves these issues when they arise between states.
