During the Revolution, men were off fighting for the new nation. Many of them had to take out loans to keep their farms going in their absence. After the war, the creditors wanted their money. Sometimes the states backed the debtors and ordered the creditors to forgive the debts. But, sometimes they backed the creditors and the peoples' farms - their homes - were foreclosed. Many men were put in debtor prison until family members could come up with the money to get them out.
The new nation was in a horrible crisis with inflation. The war had been financed by loans from Spain and France. The money had to be repaid, but because of the Revolution, a lot of business was lost from the former colonies. Trade with the British West Indies was gone. The new government asked the states for more money, but they said no.
The answer was to print more money, but of course, that never works. It made the money less and less valuable. So now the people had fistfuls of worthless money. So now you have all of these farmers, who had fought in the Revolution, unable to keep their farms. Now they cannot feed their family and they have no property, which at that time meant in most states they could not vote.
"Fault lines" connotes powerful and threatening divisions that once united the country against common enemies and conflicts. Therefore, option A is correct.
"Fault lines" symbolize potent and menacing divisions that historically united the country through shared adversaries, like fractures within the Earth's crust capable of unleashing seismic upheavals.
However, with the end of the Cold War, concerns emerged that the absence of a unifying focus against hatred and distrust could erode the sense of national identity, possibly overshadowed by the diverse identities represented by the left side of the hyphen—African-American, Mexican-American, Irish-American—thus emphasizing the delicate balance between unity and diversity within the nation.
Therefore, option A is correct.
