The Bank War and the Panic of 1837

Following the dissolution of the Second Bank of the United States by Andrew Jackson, the Panic of 1837 occurred. I’m curious on how austrian economics would explain this. This is almost 200 years ago, so I understand if this isn’t something you can answer, whether that be lack of knowledge or recorded details.

I’m also interested to know whether this could’ve been prevented, and if so, how.
