How do you explain what happened in Bleeding Kansas?
The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 allowed for popular sovereignty to decide whether those two states would join the union as slave ofrfree states. Essentially this meant that the people in those territories were allowed to choose whether the state would be free or not once the territory had a population of ten thousand and voted to petition the government for statehood.Bleeding Kansas was a result of this, as the fight for control over the future of the state escalated between pro-slavery forces crossing over from Missouri to stuff the ballots, and anti-slavery forces opposed to them. Violence erupted all over Kansas between border ruffians (pro-slavery) and Jayhawkers (anti-slavery) as they received weapons from their supporters. This led to incidents such as the city of Lawrence, Kansas (the stronghold of the anti-slavery people) being burned down and the Pottawotamie Creek massacre when John Brown and his sons killed five people with broadswords.Bloody Kansas is term which refers the general tension and violence which started in 1854 and continued for about ten more years.Answer 1Lincoln tried to force Kansas to fight against the south. Instead, Kansas seceded from the Union and fought for the south.Answer 2Answer 1 is completely incorrect. After the passage of the Kansas Nebraska Act of 1854, the actual inhabitants of Kansas were allowed to vote on whether the territory would become a slave or free state. Opposition between the two parties who wished for different outcomes led to outbreaks of violence. Border ruffians, the Missourians who crossed the border to stuff ballot boxes fought against abolitionists and member of the Free Soil Movement. Since both sides were heavily armed, this led to events like the city of Lawrence, Kansas being burned down and the Pottawotamie Creek massacre where John Brown and his sons murdered five people with broadswords. The violence continued for ten years after the law passed even though Kansas eventually entered the union as a free state.The name "Bleeding Kansas" comes from the massive amounts of bloodshed and violence which marked this period in Kansas.
