jan 1, 1850 - Compromise of 1850

Description:

This was a law dictating if new states would be free or slave states. The compromise both strengthened the Fugitive Slave Act and tried to end the spread of slavery. However, it only sparked more disagreements between Northerners and Southerners, creating greater divides within the U.S.
