The Dred Scott decision of 1857 had a profound effect on the nation by exacerbating tensions between free and slave states. The Supreme Court ruled that African Americans could not be considered citizens and that Congress had no authority to prohibit slavery in the territories, which angered abolitionists and heightened sectional conflict. This ruling effectively nullified the Missouri Compromise and intensified the debate over slavery, contributing to the growing divide that ultimately led to the Civil War.
