Summary:
Regionalism was important in the 1920's because it created different tariffs that were supposed to help with the trading of goods, but later on turned out to be a pain instead of a help to farmers. The United Farmers party was created to try and help farmers get out the messages and opinions towards the different things going on with their goods.
