The Compromise of 1820 (the Missouri Compromise) and the Compromise of 1850 were created as solutions to land crises about slavery in newly acquired territory.
The Missouri Compromise attempted to ease tensions between the North and South over the balance of power. The South was afraid of the North's growing representation in the house due to their rapidly expanding population. The North did not want the another slave-state incorporated in the Union. The compromise resulted in the establishment of the 36030' line that prohibited slavery in all territories south of the boundary.
The Compromise of 1850 introduced the idea of popular sovereignty, the ability of individual states to decide the legality of slavery for themselves. In order to appease the South, the compromise included a fugitive slave act that allowed slaveowners to recapture their slaves, whether in a free state or not.
The Fugitive Slave Act led to Supreme Court case Dred Scott v. Sandford. Dred Scott was a slave that sued for his freedom. He lost due to a four-part decision by Chief Justice Taney: Dred Scott was not a citizen of the United States, he could not sue for his freedom because he was not a legal citizen, Congress had no power to prohibit slavery, and that the Missouri Compromise was therefore unconstitutional.
