Political compromise over slavery in the United States largely broke down by the time of the Civil War, culminating in the 1860 election of Abraham Lincoln. Key compromises, such as the Missouri Compromise of 1820 and the Compromise of 1850, temporarily eased tensions but failed to provide lasting solutions. The emergence of the abolitionist movement and the Dred Scott decision further polarized the nation. Ultimately, the deep-seated divisions over slavery led to conflict rather than compromise.
The political compromise over slavery in the United States largely worked until the late 1850s, particularly unraveling with the contentious debates surrounding the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 and the Dred Scott decision of 1857. These events intensified sectional tensions between the North and South, ultimately undermining previous compromises such as the Missouri Compromise of 1820 and the Compromise of 1850. The inability to find a lasting resolution to the slavery issue contributed to the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861.

The generation in question, particularly in the context of the United States, decided to delay action on the issue of slavery until 1808 due to a compromise reached during the Constitutional Convention. This compromise allowed the importation of enslaved people to continue for 20 years after the ratification of the Constitution, postponing the potential for federal legislation against the transatlantic slave trade until 1808. This decision was largely influenced by economic interests and the political necessity to maintain unity among the Southern and Northern states.
No, and it was not intended to. It was a largely successful attempt to mediate the disagreement between North and South, by fixing a single line of latitude, and making slavery illegal anywhere North of that line. It lasted thirty years until the admission of California, which extended so far on either side of the line that a new Compromise had to be worked out. That one did not last.
It kept the issue of slavery from being resolved until a later time.
