29 ene 1850 año - Compromise of 1850

Descripción:

The Compromise of 1850 was over territory gained in the Mexican-American war. It consisted of laws making California a free state and Utah and New Mexico still to be decided by popular sovereignty. It also ended the slave trade in Washington DC and made it easier to recover fugitive slaves. This event created sectionalism by offsetting the balance of free and slave states and making it the people choice to choose which led to contreversy.
