The Missouri Compromise, enacted in 1820, aimed to resolve tensions between free and slave states by admitting Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state to maintain the balance of power in Congress. It also established a boundary at the 36°30' latitude line, north of which slavery was prohibited in the Louisiana Territory, except for Missouri. This compromise temporarily alleviated sectional conflict but ultimately highlighted the growing divisions over slavery in the United States.
