Maintain a balance between free and slave states, so that neither group could control the Congress, especially the Senate. These acts could not forestall the conflicts between the slave states and the abolitionists in the North, which eventually resulted in the secession of Southern states (1861) and the US Civil War (1861-1865).

∙ 9y agoThe question of whether or not slavery would continue in the US. The US Constitution did not outlaw slavery, and the South depended upon it for their economic survival. But maintaining a balance between "free states" and "slave states" could not prevent the North from becoming increasingly abolitionist. The long-delayed conflict finally erupted as the US Civil War (1861-1865).

Compare and contrast the Compromise of 1850 and the Missouri Compromise of 1820?
The Compromise of 1850 can be compared to the Compromise of 1820 (Missouri Compromise), mainly by comparing how the two compromises were different and alike in how they were able to successfully appease both the North and the South on the issue of slavery. The Compromise of 1850 was designed to prevent the South from seceding, and delaying the Civil War. It was created mostly to deal with the problem on how to annex California into the Union, because the North and the South disputed over whether or not to split California into two different states, the Northern section being slave-free, and the Southern section allowing slavery. The Compromise of 1820 prohibited slavery above the line of 30o60' North, except in Missouri, therefore solving the problem of how to divide the land acquired by the Union in the Mexican War.
