In 1820 the tension was high as the union decided weather or not they should admitt new state in. The states were disagreeing about the slavery or antislavery environment would be in Missiouri if it was admitted into the union. While Congress considered the Missiouri question Maine applied for statehood broadening the discussion to Maine and Missiouri. Henry clay stepped in and made a comprimise to keep the balance between the north and south.

The remainder of the Louisiana Teriotory north of the 36degree 30'N parallel banned slavery.
