Why was Missouri not added to the union in 1818?
Missouri was not added to the union in 1818 primarily due to the contentious debate over the expansion of slavery. The proposal to admit Missouri as a slave state sparked significant opposition from northern lawmakers, which led to a national crisis regarding the balance of free and slave states. This conflict ultimately resulted in the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which allowed Missouri to enter as a slave state while Maine was admitted as a free state, maintaining the balance in Congress.

What as the proposal of House member James Tallmadge in 1819 regarding the entry of Missouri into the US?
Since the Missouri Compromise of 1820, the US Congress was able to put off the delicate issue about slavery. When Missouri applied for statehood, James Talmadge had a proposal. Representative Talmadge from New York proposed that Missouri could enter the Union provided that no more slaves be introduced into Missouri. At the time, Missouri had approximately 10,000 slaves. He also proposed that slaves already in Missouri should be freed when they reached the age of 25. There seemed to be no reference about slaves in Missouri that were already over 25 years old.
What was the Critten compromise?
The Crittenden Compromise was a proposal put forth by Senator John J. Crittenden in late 1860 in an effort to prevent the impending Civil War. It aimed to resolve the sectional conflict by re-establishing the Missouri Compromise line, extending it westward, and allowing slavery in territories south of the line while prohibiting it north of the line. The proposal also included constitutional amendments to protect slavery in states where it already existed. Ultimately, the Crittenden Compromise failed to gain sufficient support and was rejected by Congress.

Why did Missouri's Application for statehood raise tension to the boiling point in 1819?
Missouri's application for statehood in 1819 heightened tensions due to the contentious issue of slavery. The proposal included provisions that would permit slavery, which alarmed many in the Northern states who opposed its expansion. This conflict led to a broader debate about the balance of power between free and slave states in Congress, culminating in the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which aimed to maintain that balance but only temporarily eased the growing sectional divide. The situation foreshadowed deeper divisions that would eventually lead to the Civil War.
