Nationalism and Sectionalism
(1816 – 1844)
Summary: After the War of 1812, a new spirit of nationalism took hold in American society. New Roads and canals helped connect the country. Industry developed in the North, while agriculture based on slave labor grew strong in the South. By the 1830s, the two regions were increasingly at odds with each other.
