The+Nullifications+Crisis-kj

The Nullification Crisis was when South Carolina refused to pay the tariffs that president Andrew Jackson had made. Andrew Jackson threatened South Carolina with military force since they wouldn't pay, and then sent a huge army of volunteers to them to show he wasn't kidding. South Carolina gave in immediately, and the crisis was over.
