Sectionalism is another word for favoring one section of the country over another
There are three reasons that explain why the American Civil War started:1) state's rights - the south felt like they weren't treated equally2) sectionalism - favoring one section or state rather than the whole country3) slavery - the south needed slaves for farming, the north was mostly industry so they didnt need slaves. most of the northerners (and some southerners) didn't think slavery was right

During the American Civil War, specifically in the Confederacy, a man could be exempted from the draft if he owned 20 or more slaves.

The Whig party (1834)
In the context of the American Revolution, moderates were those who sought reconciliation with Britain while advocating for colonial rights, often favoring gradual reform and negotiation. Key figures included John Dickinson and George Washington, who aimed for a peaceful resolution. In contrast, radicals pushed for complete independence and were more willing to resort to confrontational tactics, exemplified by leaders like Samuel Adams and Patrick Henry, who rallied support for revolutionary action and the fight against British authority.
At the onset of the war, colonists were divided in their positions regarding independence from Britain. Many sought to reconcile and maintain their rights as British subjects, while others, increasingly frustrated by British policies and taxation without representation, began advocating for complete independence. The outbreak of hostilities, particularly after events like the Battles of Lexington and Concord in 1775, galvanized support for the revolutionary cause among those favoring independence.
