The Compromise of 1850 changed the basis for slavery in the US. Under the Missouri Compromise (1820), new territories and states would allow slavery if they were located below 36° 30' N latitude. At the time, this was mostly Mexican territory, but much of it was ceded to the US following the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) and abolitionists did not want slavery extended to the area. The Compromise of 1850 left the issue of slavery up to the inhabitants of those new territories, i.e. popular sovereignty.
