The Nullification Crisis of 1832-1833 arose primarily from South Carolina's opposition to federal tariffs, particularly the Tariff of 1828 and the Tariff of 1832, which they deemed unfairly beneficial to Northern industries at the expense of Southern economies. South Carolina declared these tariffs null and void within its borders, leading to a confrontation with the federal government. The crisis was resolved when President Andrew Jackson and Congress passed the Force Bill, allowing for military action to enforce tariff collection, while simultaneously, a compromise tariff was negotiated to lower rates. This episode highlighted the tensions between state and federal authority, foreshadowing future conflicts over states' rights.

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.
