One common misconception about the Missouri Compromise is that it permanently resolved the issue of slavery in the United States. In reality, while the compromise did temporarily ease tensions by balancing the number of free and slave states, it ultimately failed to provide a lasting solution. The underlying conflicts over slavery continued to escalate, contributing to the outbreak of the Civil War. Additionally, the compromise's provisions were effectively nullified by later legislation, such as the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854.
