Correct answer: 3 only.

Explanation:
- Rising sectionalism in the early republic meant loyalties and political priorities increasingly followed region (North, South, West). That produced disputes over tariffs, slavery, internal improvements, and states’ rights that heightened conflict between regions (e.g., Missouri Compromise, Nullification Crisis, later “Bleeding Kansas” and the path to the Civil War).
- It did not promote more cooperation between states; instead it strained interstate relations and national politics.
- While sectional tensions and westward expansion affected Native Americans (Indian Removal, wars with the U.S. government), rising sectionalism itself did not primarily cause bloodshed between Native American tribes.
