Tariffs being too high in South Carolina
The Nullification crisis can be defined as a sectional crisis that occurred during the presidency of Andrew Jackson which created the 1832 South Carolina Ordinance of Nullification. This ordinance stated that the federal tariffs of 1828 and 1832 where unconstitutional and therefore null and void.

It happen because South Carolina refused to pay the turrifs that president Jackson send.
There were so many consequences to the Nullification Crisis. First of all there was so much doubt created in the Jackson's presidency and there was unification of the South among other effects.
The tariff crisis in South Carolina, also known as the Nullification Crisis, culminated in 1832 when South Carolina declared that it would not enforce the federal tariffs of 1828 and 1832, viewing them as unconstitutional. In response, President Andrew Jackson threatened military action to enforce federal law. Ultimately, a compromise was reached in 1833, led by Henry Clay, which gradually reduced the tariffs, while South Carolina rescinded its nullification ordinance, defusing the immediate conflict but highlighting the tensions between state and federal authority.
In response to tariffs laid on South Carolina by President Andrew Jackson, a number of South Carolina citizens endorsed the states' rights to nullification of tariffs. South Carolina declared the tariffs of of 1828 and 1832 null and void through the Ordinance of Nullification. This led to President Jackson sending a small amount of naval vessels to South Carolina in November 1832.
The nullification issue primarily arose in the early 1830s, with the most significant event being the Nullification Crisis of 1832-1833. It was sparked by South Carolina's declaration that it would not enforce the Tariffs of 1828 and 1832, which they deemed unconstitutional. The crisis culminated in a confrontation between the state and the federal government, ultimately resolved by a compromise tariff in 1833.
The Nullification Crisis was initiated by the Vice President (at the time) John C. Calhoun, as an advocate for states rights.
South Carolina attempted to defy the Tariff of 1832, which they believed would be economically disastrous to the state . They passed the Ordinance of 1832 which called the tariff unconstitutional and restated a state's right to defy an unconstitutional law that might prove detrimental to their well being. President Jackson countered with The Nullification Ordinance of 1832 and sent a flotilla of naval ships to South Carolina ports to enforce the tax.
The nullification crisis of 1832 centered around southern opposition to tariffs.
