If you're referring to the US Civil War; the last Civil War veteran allegedly passed away in the 1950's. So sectionalism existed until them...memories fading with the people that lived within those times.

Sectionalism was the term used to describe the separation of the South and the North prior to the Civil War. This separation was caused by certain issues such as slavery, but the main reason was states rights.
James Monroe led to sectionalism by passing the Compromise of 1820, also known as the Missouri Compromise. This compromise stated that for any state that has slavery, it must have a sister state in which slaves are free. This idea was controversial and led to a deeper feud between the North and the South. They had already been disagreeing in the Senate, which was also feeling the affects of sectionalism. The Senate had divided into North, South, and West sections. The North and South always disagreed, therefore causing the West to make all the decisions. Mainly, the Missouri Compromise added to growing sectionalism in our country under James Monroe.
The interests of the North and of the South were different. The North was growing into a more industrial region with factories, thus they had industrial interests, versus the South which had agricultural interests. These differences, along with the disputes over slavery, caused sectionalism to develop. Sectionalism brought an end to the Era of Good Feelings.
the significance of sectionalism is that it caused many people in the south to vote for slavery even though they were anti slavery. Even Robert E Lee was affected. He was first asked by Lincoln to be general for the north but declined because he lived in the south
The issue of slavery.

Yes, but I am not doing your homework for you.
Sectionalism was the term used to describe the separation of the South and the North prior to the Civil War. This separation was caused by certain issues such as slavery, but the main reason was states rights.
By the 1850s, a pronounced sectionalism had developed between the industrial North and agricultural South. The two sections disagreed about economics, statehood, and slavery- issues that, in the minds of politically active Southerners, comprised one main issue: states' rights.
Sectionalism refers to the loyalty and identification with a specific region within a country, often leading to tensions and conflicts between different regions. It was a major factor that contributed to the outbreak of the American Civil War, with differences in economic interests, social structures, and political beliefs dividing the North and South. Sectionalism has also been observed in other countries and historical periods, such as the United Kingdom during the Industrial Revolution.
What were some advantages of the South? What about North
"Uncle Tom's Cabin" contributed to sectionalism by portraying the harsh realities of slavery in the South, which angered Southern slaveholders and deepened divisions between the North and South. The novel fueled anti-slavery sentiments in the North, helping to solidify the divide between the two regions leading up to the Civil War.
Slavery was allowed in Pennsylvania during the colonial period, but the state gradually began to restrict and eventually abolish slavery. In 1780, Pennsylvania passed the Gradual Abolition Act, which provided for the gradual emancipation of enslaved individuals, making Pennsylvania the first state in the U.S. to abolish slavery.
The conflict over slavery in the United States fueled sectionalism by deepening the divide between the North and the South. The differing views on slavery's morality and its impact on the economy and society created distinct regional identities and priorities. This ultimately led to the breakdown of national unity and the eruption of the Civil War.
Daniel Webster opposed sectionalism, believing that it threatened the unity of the nation. He argued for a strong federal government to help maintain cohesion between the North and the South, emphasizing the importance of national unity and the preservation of the Union.
