In the early 1800s, nullification emerged as a response to federal tariffs that Southern states, particularly South Carolina, believed were unfairly beneficial to Northern industries at their expense. The Tariff of 1828, known as the "Tariff of Abominations," prompted South Carolina to assert that states had the right to nullify Federal Laws they deemed unconstitutional. This conflict highlighted the tensions between state and federal authority, ultimately leading to a significant confrontation over the balance of power in the United States. The issue of nullification and tariffs underscored the growing divide between the agrarian South and the industrializing North.
