Slavery in the Territories
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| The 3 compromises on slavery in the territories were known as the Missouri Compromise, the Compromise of 1850, and the Kansas Nebraska Act. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
| | |
| These Acts and Compromises all had a way to minimize slavery but not fully ending it. It applied anti-slavery laws to different territories, finally wiping out slavery for good. | |

| Right. The Missouri Compromise drew a line down the Missouri River saying one side, slavery was allowed but not the other. The Compromise of 1850 decided that Popular Sovereignty was the way to go. | |

|
|
| | |
| Exactly, for the New Mexico Territory. Well, the Kansas-Nebraska Act decided to use popular sovereignty as well however it caused a lot of problems resulting in the conflict known as "Bloody Kansas" | |
