The Compromise of 1850 was a direct result of the Wilmot Proviso. This was one of the main events leading up to the American Civil War.
Some of the events that brought about the compromise of 1850 were slavery and territorial controversies arising from the Mexican American War. The compromise brought to an end the conflict between southern or slavery states and the northern, or free states.
During the civil war, legislators passed some regulations to deal with the slavery issue, and this triggered civil unrest. The compromise helped in resolving the confrontation between the Free states and the Slave states.
The Missouri Compromise of 1850 was made a moot compromise with the introduction of the Kansas Nebraska Act of 1854. Neither pieces of legislation can be demonstrated as a cause of the US Civil War. And, both laws were deemed unconstitutional by the US Supreme Court in the Dredd Scott case of 1857.
