One factor that contributed to the rise of sectionalism after the war of 1812

  as the united states moved closer to  civil  war, the country divided more and more.   2  sectionalism  began to grow early in the 1800s, right  after the war of 1812. as more factories were built, the south and the north grew further apart. when more people moved to the west, the country began to divide in this  way, too.
