The Crittenden Compromise was mainly about creating an unamendable amendment to the Constitution allowing slavery below the latitude 36 -30. It also stipulated that all prior political party affiliations be changed to the Union Party. The idea was to work out some sort of compromise to prevent the session of the South.
