Stephen Douglas's plan, particularly through the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, effectively undid the Missouri Compromise by allowing the territories of Kansas and Nebraska to decide for themselves whether to allow slavery through the principle of popular sovereignty. This approach contradicted the Missouri Compromise, which had prohibited slavery in those territories north of the 36°30′ parallel. As a result, the act reignited sectional tensions and led to violent conflicts, known as "Bleeding Kansas," as pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers rushed to influence the territories' decisions.

Why did czar Alexander III undo his fathers changes?

Czar Alexander III undid his father Alexander II's reforms primarily because he believed they threatened the stability and unity of the Russian Empire. He favored a more autocratic rule and sought to reinforce traditional values, suppress revolutionary movements, and maintain a strong central authority. Alexander III's policies included promoting Russian nationalism and implementing repressive measures against dissent, which he viewed as essential for preserving the empire's integrity. This marked a significant shift away from the more liberal reforms of his father.
