An advantage to the Missouri Compromise of 1820 was that slavery would not be permitted in the territory that is now the state of Missouri. A disadvantage to the Missouri Compromise was that people who believed in slavery in the South could not move north to gain more land and keep their slaves.

∙ 12y agoGood question! The North benefited from the Missouri Compromise, because they received another state in the North (Maine) that did not allow slavery (because the North didn't like slavery.) The South benefited from the Missouri Compromise, because they received another southern state (Missouri) that was capable of having slaves. This way, both the North and the South had an equal amount of 12 Northern states and 12 Southern states.
