Nullification+Crisis

The ** Nullification Crisis ** was a sectional crisis during the presidency of Andrew Jackson created by South Carolina's 1832 Ordinance of Nullification. This ordinance declared by the power of the State that the federal Tariffs of 1828 and 1832 were unconstitutional and therefore null and void within the sovereign boundaries of South Carolina. This meant that the state government was rejecting laws imposed by the federal government. This was an argument for states right's. It caused a crisis. That's all I got.
