Compromises 1820-1854

Missouri Compromise 1820 In 1819, Missouri applies for statehood! There are 11 slave states, 11 free states Missouri would upset the balance in Congress Southerners say North conspiring to end slavery! Northerners say South trying to extend slavery!

Missouri Compromise 1820 Henry Clay has a plan! Who is Henry Clay? - Congressman from Kentucky -Author of the American System -Known as the “Great Compromisor” Henry Clay

THE DETAILS OF THE COMPROMISE: Missouri Compromise 1820 THE DETAILS OF THE COMPROMISE: 1. Missouri admitted as a Slave State 2. Maine is created and admitted as a Free State 3. All land below 36, 30’ line is open to slavery.

Missouri Compromise 1820

Compromise of 1850 By 1850, the United States owns large amounts of land. Should the new territory allow slavery? California wants to be a free state, but that might upset the balance of free and slave states.

Compromise of 1850 Again, Henry Clay comes to the rescue! Thirty Years older . . .

Compromise of 1850 1. California admitted as a Free State 2. Popular Sovereignty for Utah and New Mexico citizens, they choose for themselves! 3. No more slave trade in D.C. 4. New STRICT Fugitive Slave Law enacted

Compromise of 1850

Kansas-Nebraska Act 1854  Hated in North for the very same * Under popular sovereignty, settlers would have choice whether or not to adopt legal slavery in Kansas/Nebraska Territories.  Loved in the South. It would allow slavery legally above 36o30’.  Hated in North for the very same reason!

Kansas-Nebraska Act

Unintended Consequences! Kansas-Nebraska Act 1854 Unintended Consequences! “The idea that every task, however well-intentioned, comes with unforeseen effects that can overshadow the original goal.” Pro-slavery groups move to Kansas Abolitionists move to Kansas AT THE SAME TIME!!

Fighting between the two groups results in 55 dead. Kansas-Nebraska Act 1854 THE RESULT? Bleeding Kansas! Fighting between the two groups results in 55 dead.

Kansas-Nebraska Act 1854 Another unintended consequence . . . People are so unhappy with the Kansas-Nebraska Act, they form the Republican Party. PLATFORM OF PARTY . . . . . “Slavery must not extend into the territories!.”

“Slavery must not extend into the territories!” PLATFORM OF PARTY . . . . “Slavery must not extend into the territories!” THE END Or, is it just the beginning . . .
