  • Thomas Jefferson bought the Louisiana territory in 1820, which led to an increase in population in the new areas and the opening up of further territories to statehood petitions. Although it did raise a concern when the new territories became states—like Missouri—they might affect the balance in Congress between free and slave states. The pro-slavery South and the anti-slavery North frequently argued over this. The Northerners did not want Missouri to become a slave state in order to start a new chain of slave states, while the Southerners did not want Northerners to expand on Southern areas.
  • We own Missouri! Stop attempting to abolish our slavery.
  • You cannot have these states, we promise! A huge number of additional states will follow Missouri's lead and become slave states as well. The equilibrium will then be lost.
  • Congressman from Kentucky Henry Clay offered a special solution. Maine would be admitted as a free state, whereas Missouri would be accepted as a slave state. Everything north of the 36-30 latitude line would then become a free state, and everything south of that line would become a slave state for all future states. As a temporary solution to the dispute, this became known as the Missouri Compromise.
  • Oh stop it! I got a solution for all of you!
  • The Missouri Compromise was then used as the foundation for the Compromise of 1850. The U.S. Congress issued a number of laws in an effort to resolve political tensions on the status of slavery in the country. The laws set a boundary between Texas and the United States, abolished the slave trade in Washington, DC, and revised the Fugitive Slave Act in addition to calling for the admission of California as a "free state" and territory government for Utah and New Mexico.
