Bleeding Kansas (jan 1, 1854 – jan 1, 1856)

Description:

Bleeding Kansas occurred due to the Kansas-Nebraska Act. Two separate governments were created, both of which claimed to be the legitimate government of Kansas. Pierce acknowledged the Lecompton government, as that was the one that most aligned with his ideas.
