The slavery issue had to be balanced against the interests of the more liberal and highly populated states to the North and when Arkansas was admitted as the 25th State in the Union the Balance of Power shifted in the US Senate with 13 pro-slavery states and only 12 anti-slavery states, Gridlock and Deadlock were in place with the Abolitionist in and the vast majority of the US people in control of the House of Representatives and the Pro-Slavery contingent in control of the US Senate. The result was the Missouri Compromise and the US Civil War, an American Bloodbath.
