Which one matches geography

Answer 1

The topic that most closely matches geography in the context of causing economic differences among regions in the United States is **Sectionalism**.

Sectionalism refers to the loyalty of a region or section of the country rather than the country as a whole, and it was fueled by geographic, economic, and social differences between the North, South, and West. Geography played a significant role in shaping the economies of these different regions—such as agriculture in the South, industrialization in the North, and frontier expansion in the West—which contributed to the economic differences and tensions that characterized this period.

While the Kansas-Nebraska Act and the Compromise of 1850 are also related to sectional tensions, they stem from the larger issue of sectionalism. The Dred Scott v. Sandford case deals more with legal and social implications of slavery but can be tied to sectionalism as well.
