What were the different sections in the sectionalism of the united state?

Answer 1

In the decades prior to the American Civil War, the main sectional difference that developed in the United States was between the North and the South. Particular differences between these regions included the following: a strongly industrial business-base in the North contrasting with the agricultural South; an entrepreneurial and enterprising 'Yankee' society in the North while Southerners generally resisted change and innovation in business practice; a faster-paced, more greatly urban, and increasingly modern social structure in the North while the South was more traditionally aristocratic and conventionally family- and local community-oriented; finally, the North opposed slavery as a legal institution (even if racial prejudice was still common) while the South embraced it.
