1 sett 1850 anni - Compromise of 1850

Descrizione:

Description: The Compromise of 1850 would admit California as a free state, strengthen the Fugitive Slave Law, have popular sovereignty in Utah and New Mexico concerning slavery, and abolish slave trade in Washington D.C.
Causes: Increasing divide and tensions between the north and south led to Henry Clay introducing resolutions in an attempt to avert this growing crisis.
Historical Impact: Many would become agitated as they felt anger for getting rid of the symbolic Missouri Compromise of 1820 and the new Fugitive Slave Law would further abolitionist efforts for reform.
