Detailed explanation-1: -Northern industrialists favored protective tariffs because they allowed the manufactured goods they produced domestically to be sold at a lower cost than foreign goods imported into the United States.
Detailed explanation-2: -The North favored protective tariffs for their manufacturing industry. The South, which exported agricultural products to and imported manufactured goods from Europe, favored free trade and was hurt by the tariffs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation: The North had become industrialized, so having high tariffs on foreign products meant that people had to buy domestically, i.e. from the North. The South, on the other hand, was still agricultural. This meant they had to buy any and all manufactured goods.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Tariff of 1828, also called the Tariff of Abominations, was a protective tariff passed in the early 19th century to support growing domestic industries by raising the costs of imported goods, a view that came to be known as protectionism.
