The Missouri Line, often referred to in historical contexts, generally denotes the boundary between free and slave states in the United States prior to the Civil War. Specifically, it is associated with the Mason-Dixon Line and the 36°30' parallel, which marked the division established by the Missouri Compromise of 1820. This line became a significant symbol in the debates over slavery and sectionalism in American history.
