The Missouri Compromise (1820) - Missouri's Southern border to be taken as the line of latitude extending West as the frontier of slavery. In any new States North of that line, slavery would be illegal.
The Compromise of 1850 - California to be admitted to the Union as free soil, in exchange for a toughening-up of the Fugitive Slave Act, allowing official slave-catchers to hunt down runaways and return them to their masters.
There were two Missouri Compromises. They were created in 1820 and 1850. Both of them were reached in order to maintain a balance between States that had abolished slavery and those States were slavery still existed. The compromises served and had a noble purpose. They were not made to in effect to justify slavery. The purpose of both of them was to avoid a serious conflict among the States. When seen in that light, the compromises delayed a civil war in the United States.
Slavery was made illegal by the 13th amendment during the civil war. Before slavery was made illegal people were still allowed to bring slaves into the country.
Compromises between the North and the South began with the writing of the US Constitution, however, in the 19th century, three major compromises were made between the North and the South. The purpose of the compromises were to keep the number of free states and slave states equal in number. The last compromise can be said to be the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854. There citizens would vote on slavery in there own territories. The US Congress, thereby washed its hands of the old style compromises. The people within territories would vote on the issue, Congress retreated from the slavery issue battle.
The Compromise of 1850 did not offer a permanent solution to the slavery question because the "Fugitive Slave Law" that was part of it was not enforced by Northern states, leading Southern political leaders faced with no choice but to secede. With this secession came the inevitable Civil War that would answer the question of slavery once and for all.

It's compromises sorry... I made a mystake before
your teacher is a liberal, half the colonies would not have joined if there wasnt a compromise on slavery, america probably wouldnt exist. If there hadnt been a compromise then the south would have developed into a country where slavery was completely acceptable instead of what it is now.
after the confederates lost the civil war the 13 amendment was passed and it made slavery illegal
The north had an economy based on Manufacturing this made northerners oppose slavery because slaves could have taken their jobs
North was a better country and they ended slavery.
Civil war
The Emancipation Proclamation, effective January 1863. This made it impossible for Britain and France to intervene on the Confederate side without looking pro-slavery.
