The Nullification Crisis

Question 14 • DRHS GA-GSE US History A

What were the results of the compromise that ended the Nullification Crisis?Check all of the boxes that apply.

Answer
A
Nullification was defeated.
B
South Carolina remained in the Union.
C
Massachusetts seceded from the Union.
D
The government kept the right to regulate trade.

Explanation

The compromise tariff gradually lowered duties, helping ease South Carolina’s opposition, while Congress also affirmed the federal government’s authority to enforce its laws. South Carolina repealed its nullification ordinance and remained in the Union, so nullification was defeated. Massachusetts did not secede, making that choice incorrect.
