Is it true that the compromise of 1850 eliminted slavery only in the south?
No, it just made it harder to create new slave-states anywhere. You may be thinking of the Emancipation Proclamation, issued in mid-war, which outlawed slavery in the rebel states, but allowed it to continue in the four states of the Upper South that had remained loyal.

Are there more union or confederate states?
The Union was made up of twenty states at the beginning of the US Civil War, and would grow to twenty two by 1864 with the addition of West Virginia (June 1863) and Nevada (October 31, 1864). There were also three border states that remained marginally loyal to the United States. The Confederacy only had eleven states. See the link below for a map of both nations.

Why did confederacy and union want support from the border states?
Because they could have swung the whole result. It made a very big difference that Kentucky and Missouri stayed loyal, however much sectional strife remained, and Lincoln was determined that the Ohio River was not going to be the war-frontier. As for Maryland, that was like a tinder-box, with Union troops marching down from New York and needing to reach Washington. This was where Lincoln had to break the rules to arrest certain pro-Confederate leaders. But again, the main objective was achieved. This important state, surrounding Washington D.C., remained loyal.
Was the emancipation proclamation from the north or south?
The North. It was issued by Lincoln, chiefly to keep the British from aiding the Confederates (because it would have made them look pro-slavery themselves.) The Proclamation declared slavery to be illegal in all the states in rebellion - that is, the South. It allowed slavery to continue in the slave-states that had remained loyal, for fear of upsetting powerful slave-owners and driving them into the arms of the Confederacy.

Who made the Greek city-states commit to government?
Their citizens.
Why did some abolitionist criticize Lincoln Emancipation Proclamation?
The Emancipation Proclamation only applied to the Confederate states, but not all of the salve states had joined the confederacy. There were several slave states still in the Union, and they continued as slave states after the proclamation.
