During the Civil War, the South opposed protective tariffs. Southern states relied heavily on agriculture and international trade, particularly cotton exports, and viewed tariffs as harmful to their economy. They believed that protective tariffs favored Northern industries at their expense, leading to increased prices for goods and reduced competitiveness in international markets.

What is one similarity between a protective tariff and revenue tariff?

Both protective and revenue tariffs are applied for two reasons. First of all, they can be used to make foreign products more expensive than the ones produced in the homeland. Second, tariffs have a side purpose of making money. Some overseas merchants may consider the tariff a necessary evil to trade in the country, and pay the tariff. In both cases, the tariffs serve to bring in additional revenue to the country.
