The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 effectively undermined the Missouri Compromise by allowing the territories of Kansas and Nebraska to determine their own status regarding slavery through popular sovereignty. The Missouri Compromise had previously established a boundary line at the 36°30′ parallel, north of which slavery was prohibited. By permitting the possibility of slavery in areas where it had previously been banned, the Kansas-Nebraska Act reignited tensions between pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions, contributing to the sectional conflict leading up to the Civil War.

Kansas-Nebraska Act
The Missouri Compromise was created on March 19, 1820. It was an attempt to retain the balance of power between the northern and southern states. It was repealed by the Kansas Nebraska Act.
No. The effect of the Kansas-Nebraska Act (1854) was to supersede (nullify) the Missouri Compromise, rendering it inapplicable to future states. The geographical division was not applied, but rather "popular sovereignty" within a state would decide the issue of slavery there. This resulted in internecine warfare in the states of Kansas and Missouri, and murderous attacks by both sides (abolitionists and pro-slavery).The Missouri Compromise (1820) was never actually repealed per se.
