NORTH Government created by the people. Only the Supreme Court can declare a law unconstitutional. Only the people of the US could dissolve the Union. Attempting to destroy the Union was treason.

Even though the United States had been established decades earlier, many people still felt that the states should have FINAL AUTHORITY, not the federal government. vs.
