The event that resulted from President Andrew Jackson's attempt to balance trade between the North and the South is **the nullification controversy**. This controversy arose in response to tariffs that were perceived as favoring Northern interests at the expense of Southern economies. South Carolina, in particular, strongly opposed these tariffs and asserted the right to nullify federal laws, leading to a significant conflict that Jackson addressed during his presidency.
