How did the compromise of 1850 affect California?

Why wasn't the north and the south able to compromise over their differences in 1861?
They did - the Missouri Compromise. This lasted thirty years, and was only rendered impractical by the admission of California, a state that extended so far on either side of the Missouri line that both sides claimed it.

Did The Missouri Compromise cause the southern states to leave the union?
No. The Compromise allowed the Missouri territory to join the USA as a slave-state. The condition was that there should be no more new slave-states North of the parallel that marked Missouri's Southern border. This represented a clear 'line in the sand' that kept the peace for thirty years, until the admission of California made the Compromise inoperable.
What compromise said that California would be a free state?
The Compromise of 1850. To get it through Congress, they had to appease the South by promising to hunt down fugitive slaves and return them to their owners. This aroused sympathy for runaways, and helped to fuel inter-sectional discord.

To allow California to join the Union as two states - North California and South California - divided by the line of the Missouri Compromise.
What is the agreement between the north and the south admitting California as a free state?
Compromise of 1850.
What was the compromise needed in 1850 to hold the union together in return for admitting California as a free state?
It was getting harder to create new slave-states, so the Compromise had to include a gesture of appeasement to the South. This was the Fugitive Slave Act, which infuriated the North, and generally raised the tensions.
What did the north and the south each gained from the compromise of 1850?
The Compromise of 1850 aimed to ease tensions between the North and South over the issue of slavery. The North gained the admission of California as a free state and the abolition of the slave trade in Washington, D.C. In return, the South received a stronger Fugitive Slave Law, which required Northern states to return escaped slaves and allowed for the possibility of popular sovereignty in new territories, giving them a chance to expand slavery. This compromise temporarily quelled sectional conflict but ultimately did not resolve the underlying issues.

The South gained several concessions in exchange for allowing California to enter the Union as a free state through the Compromise of 1850. These concessions included the implementation of a stricter Fugitive Slave Law, which required the return of escaped slaves, and the ability to decide the status of slavery in the territories of New Mexico and Utah through popular sovereignty. Additionally, the slave trade was abolished in Washington, D.C., but slavery itself remained legal, which the South viewed as a necessary compromise to maintain their interests.
What agreement avoided war in the 1850 by repealing the Missouir compromise?
The Compromise of 1850 - allowing California to join the Union as free soil, and passing the Fugitive Slave Act to appease the South.
Can you tell me more if the civil war needful?
The war could have been avoided if California had been divided into two states - North California and South California - along the parallel of the Missouri Compromise. North California could have been free soil, and South California could have been a slave-state.
