Best Answer

Henry Clay was instrumental in drafting The Great Compromise of 1850. It came about because in the years leading up to the Civil War, the country began to struggle with maintaining a balance between slave and free soil in the growing Southwestern and Western part of the country. Most of the affected area was not yet granted statehood and as earlier stated the main purpose was to keep balance between slave and free territory. It was ultimately a temporary bandage on the gaping wound of slavery.
