Dcelebrating patriotism with one’s family and friends

Verified Answer :

Answer:

The correct answer is B. An example of sectionalism would be all states having separate economies.

Explanation:

Sectionalism is the expression of loyalty to one's own region or part of the country, as opposed to the whole country. For example, a stronger sense of belonging to the home state rather than to the nation could be described as sectionalism.

In many cases, sectionalism is a precursor to separatism. For example, southern sectionalism in the 1800s finally led to the secession of the Confederation.
