What was a key feature of the Compromise of 1850 that upset Southerners?
A key feature of the Compromise of 1850 that upset Southerners was the admission of California as a free state. This disrupted the balance of power between free and slave states, tipping it in favor of the North. Additionally, while the compromise included a stronger Fugitive Slave Act, many Southerners felt that the concessions made to the North were insufficient to protect their interests in slavery.

What was the results of the presidential election of 1842?
The results of the 1852 US presidential election begins with 1850 and the 1850 Missouri Compromise. It was signed by Whig President Millard Fillmore. It seemed in1850 that both the Whigs and Democrats had accepted the finality of the second Missouri Compromise. With slavery in the territories now off the national scene, there seemed very little to distinguish the parties. In truth, however, the debate over the Compromise had split apart the Whig Party. As 1852 approached, the northern Whigs, who were the base of the antislavery movement nominated the hero of the Mexican War, Winfield Scott for president. Scott was a Virginian and a pro- compromise candidate. Meanwhile the Democrats were never split over the compromise and nominated Franklin Pierce. Many Whigs did not vote and Pierce beat Scott handily, The Democratic Party's platform was the 1850 Compromise.
How did abolitionists try to get around the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850?
The Fugitive Slave Act was an add-on to the 1850 Missouri Compromise. Many people, not just abolitionists didn't like it at all. Even people not against slavery did not believe it was their responsibility to help enforce it whether they received rewards or not. So basically, the abolitionists found allies among Northern people not wanting to get involved.
Why was sectional compromise impossible in 1860?
Sectional compromise did not work in 1860 for many reasons. One of them being that this was the time during the great potato famine in Ireland, so the refugees cascaded into the northern states in the 1850's. Therefore, the north had no room. Once the Europeans were in America, they had no desire for the practice of slavery, and the north states were not convinced to compromise over slavery. The new compromise was put out for grabs, but Lincoln rejected it because he would not allow the extension of slavery. Also, the Crittenden Compromise would allow new slave states, but Lincoln would not accept this, either.
Which group was most appeased by this provision in the compromise?
To provide an accurate answer, I need more context about the specific compromise you are referring to. However, in many historical compromises, such as the Missouri Compromise or the Compromise of 1850, it is often the case that pro-slavery factions or Southern states were appeased by provisions that allowed for the expansion of slavery or the return of escaped slaves. Please specify the compromise for a more precise response.
Why did Texas became a slave state after the compromise of 1850?
Texas became a slave state after the Compromise of 1850 primarily due to its status as an independent republic before joining the United States in 1845. When Texas was annexed, it was allowed to maintain its existing laws, including those supporting slavery. The Compromise of 1850 aimed to balance the interests of free and slave states, and Texas's admission as a slave state was part of this effort to maintain sectional harmony. Additionally, the economic interests of many Texans were tied to slavery, which reinforced the state's commitment to the institution.
