No land was purchased, but the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 was passed for the purpose of building the transcontinental railroad.

The conflict between then-slaveholding South and free-soil North would cause the conflict known as Bloody Kansas, in which a state of near civil war and anarchy ensued. Bloody Kansas occurred because both regions (South, North) wanted a state in their control to send Senators to Congress and lean the balance of power in their favor (at the time, there were an even number of Senators from both regions).
