In the years leading up to the Civil War, both the North and South made several attempts to compromise on the issue of slavery, notably through the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which allowed Missouri to enter as a slave state while Maine entered as a free state, and the Compromise of 1850, which included the Fugitive Slave Act and admitted California as a free state. However, these compromises ultimately failed to resolve the underlying tensions, as the South viewed them as threats to their way of life, while many in the North increasingly opposed the expansion of slavery. The inability to find lasting solutions exacerbated divisions, leading to heightened conflict and eventually the Civil War. Ultimately, the compromises merely postponed the inevitable confrontation over slavery and states' rights.
