Missouri Compromise
The Missouri Compromise (1820)
The Missouri Compromise provided that no Slave State could be established to the north of a line represented by the parallel 36° 30' coincident with the Southern boundary of Missouri.
Missouri Compromise
The compromises drew a line between free and slave states on the 36 30 line of latitude.on the Arkansas Missouri border and everything above it was free except Missouri.
The Missouri Compromise occurred due to disagreement over whether territories admitted to the Union should be admitted as slave states or free states. Under the terms of the agreement, a line was drawn across all territories that were part of the Louisiana Territory at latitude 36 degrees 30 minutes North, and all territories north of that boundary line with the exception of Missouri were to be free of slavery. In order to balance the number of free and slave states with the admission of Missouri as a slave state, the northern portion of Massachusetts was separated to become the State of Maine.
Yes. It was Missouri's Southern border that became the parallel.
False. The Missouri Compromise was meant to lay down the boundary for the new states. Anywhere North of that parallel was free soil. South of it could be slave-states.
