Well, Henry Clay worked out the compromise; the three parts are: 1.Maine would separate from Massachusetts and be admitted as a free state; 2.Missouri would enter the Union as a slave state; and 3.The remaining territory of the Louisiana Purchase, which lay north of the 36-30 parallel, would be closed off to slavery.
It was an attempt to simplify the slavery question by settling on a single line of latitude and ruling that slavery would be illegal in any new states to the north of this parallel.
