In the period of time after the Kansas-Nebraska Act was passed by Congress, there was armed conflict between pro and anti slavery factions in the Kansas territory. Bleeding Kansas was the result of popular sovereignty. At the time the idea birthed by Senator Stephen Douglas seemed the American way to settle disputes. Few expected the violence that erupted in Kansas soon after the Act was passed.
