The Missouri Compromise (jan 1, 1850 – jan 1, 1858)
Description:
The Missouri Compromise made a line of where the free and not free states were, but the south wanted to have more. The south and north ended up dropping this because they were having a feud about it. The south wanted into the west, the Caribbean, and central America and the north did not want this so it was one thing that lead to the civil war.
