Florida waited six years for its statehood request to be approved primarily due to political and economic factors, including concerns over the balance of power between slave and free states. The U.S. Congress was hesitant to admit Florida as a slave state, especially in the context of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which aimed to maintain a balance between free and slave states. Additionally, Florida had to establish a stable governance structure and address issues related to land claims and Native American relations before gaining approval for statehood. Ultimately, it was not until 1845 that Florida was admitted as the 27th state.
