When did Kansas secede?
Kansas never seceded from the Union during the Civil War.Granted that Kansas was quite volatile during the 1850s concerning the question of slavery. Jon Brown and company were quite vocal and active in that decade.I think Missouri seceded though, but was never recognized by the CSA as a state but was considered a CSA territory.

What compromises did the government make leading up to the US Civil War?
There were a number of compromises made in the US leading up to the US Civil War. The list is as follows:1. In order to have the new US Constitution ratified, slavery was not slated for abolishment, but the importation of slaves would be illegal after 10 years. ( this was a hollow deal as slaves continued to be imported under cover) 2. The Missouri Compromise of 1820 to keep the balance of slave and free states equal; 3. The Missouri Compromise of 1850, this also to keep the slave-free state balance, but added the Fugitive Slave Law; and 4. The Kansas-Nebraska Act allowing citizens to vote on the slave issue when a territory had yet to apply for statehood.
What effect did the Dred Scott Supreme Court case have on Dred Scott's freddom and on the Missouri Compromise?
Scott didn't win his freedom and the decision reinforced the idea that slaves were property. The Missouri Compromise was a blow to the southern states to gain more slave states. I don't think the Scott decision added anything to the compromise, but it did entrench slavery in the states where it existed.
Why was Jefferson alarmed at the bitterness of the debate over the extension of slavery?
Thomas Jefferson worried about the Missouri Compromise in 1820 because it seemed to split the nation along "slave" and "free" lines. He called it something like "an alarm bell in the night." (Google the exactly quotation if you wish.) Prior to this time politicians did not think in terms of the nation being divided into two different regions, but Jefferson saw that this would lead to conflict. In addition, Jefferson and most other people of his generation had thought of slavery as something that would just go away soon.

Why doesn't Timothy Claimright say Maine shouldn't be involved in the Missouri Compromise?
Timothy Claimright did not want Maine to be associated with slavery. He felt that because of the Missouri compromise people would associated slavery with Maine, and they would not think of Maine as a strong free state. He also was strongly against slavery; he believed that freedom was a God givin right and did not wish to see the institution of slavery move westward.
