Best Answer

The issue of the dispute of the border centered on slavery. Texas could claim what they wanted to claim regarding their borders as long as they were a Republic. The moment they became a part of the Union they were forced to play by a different set of rules. The 1850 Compromise was disliked by both the Southern and Northern legislators but was a temporary solution that avoided the Civil War for a brief period of time.
