Solution

The correct option is C Sectionalism

The two-party political system emerged in part because of Sectionalism. Sectionalism divided the nation in half along regional lines, and each region came to be identified with a political party. In the presidential election of 1796, the Democratic-Republicans controlled the South with Pennsylvania while the Federalists controlled the northeast with Maryland and Delaware.
