Kansas Nebraska Act
Kansas-Nebraska
In the period of time after the Kansas-Nebraska Act was passed by Congress, there was armed conflict between pro and anti slavery factions in the Kansas territory. Bleeding Kansas was the result of popular sovereignty. At the time the idea birthed by Senator Stephen Douglas seemed the American way to settle disputes. Few expected the violence that erupted in Kansas soon after the Act was passed.
Kansas was settled around 1850 with the Kansas-Nebraska Act. =)

The Kansas-Nebraska Act also led to "Bleeding Kansas," a mini civil war that erupted in Kansas in 1856. Northerners and Southerners flooded Kansas in 1854 and 1855, determined to convert the future state to their view on slavery.
The Missouri Compromise was effectively ended by the Kansas-Nebraska Act, however since there was still turmoil as to the "Bleeding Kansas" dispute, it was thought that the Kansas-Nebraska Act would be shortly overturned. The Dred Scott decision by the Supreme Court further strengthened the elimination of the Missouri Compromise and the institution of slavery north of the Mason-Dixon Line by ruling that slaves were not able to take cases to court.
