3 mars 1820 - Missouri Crisis and Missouri Compromise of 1820
Description:
Missouri began to petition for statehood in 1819, however, it would upset the slave-free state ratio in America. This increased tensions because Congress had to debate over what to do. The Compromise led to the slave state ratio to go back to equilibrium so the tensions were decreased.
