The Missouri Compromise allowed Missouri to be admitted in the Union as a slave state.
The Missouri Compromise allowed Missouri to be admitted into the Union as a slave state.
It set the stage for future annexed states in the Union. It claimed that any state North of the 36º 30' parallel would be free states, anything under that would be a slave state. Unfortunately, it was only a temporary solution to an increasingly evident problem that would ultimately lead to the Civil War.
It was the first attempt to broker a deal between the slave-states and the free states that would give them equal voting power in Congress.
If the South felt that were doomed to be outvoted, they would be more inclined to secede and live off their huge cotton wealth - depriving Washington of the cotton revenues.
