They didn't like it, because it banned slavery North of a certain line. But at least it was a clear 'line in the sand'.

Both sides disliked it equally. Oddly enough, this kept the balance, and it kept the peace for thirty years.

The most important part of the Missouri Compromise for the South was that Missouri was allowed to join the USA as a slave-state. In addition, the "Free Land" of the Louisiana Purchase was now altered so that any territories south of Latitude 36.30, could also join as slave-states (when they had sufficient white population to apply for statehood).

The North was not happy at all about the Missouri Compromise, due to the unbalance of power it would create within Congress. It stirred up a lot of issues.
