In a paragraph, describe three compromises that were made over the practice of slavery during the expansion of the united states into western areas. identify the details in each act designed to appeal to the south.

These compromises on slavery had serious effects on the nation. The fugitive slave clause (enforced through legislation passed in 1793 and 1850) allowed escaped slaves to be chased into the North and caught. It also resulted in the illegal kidnapping and return to slavery of thousands of free blacks. The three-fifths compromise increased the South’s representation in Congress and the Electoral College. In 12 of the first 16 presidential elections, a Southern slave owner won. Extending the slave trade past 1800 brought many slaves to America. South Carolina alone imported 40,000 slaves between 1803 and 1808 (when Congress overwhelmingly voted to end the trade). So many slaves entered that slavery spilled into the Louisiana territory and took root.

Three compromises that made over the practice of slavery during the expansion of the United States into western areas were The Missouri Compromise of 1820, The Compromise of 1850, and the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854.

EXPLANATION  

The Missouri Compromise of 1820

The Missouri Compromise, enacted in 1820, was the first real legislative effort to find a solution to the problem of slavery. This compromise, partly engineered by Henry Clay, kept the status quo to balance the slaves’ number and the free state by establishing an east/west line (the Mason-Dixon line). These lines were established to limit slavery as a custom in the south. This is far from the solution, but for three decades the Missouri Compromise appeared to have kept the slavery crisis from completely dominating.

The Compromise of 1850  

After the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), the United States gained vast territories in the West, including the states of California, Arizona, and New Mexico today. The issue of slavery, not at the forefront of national politics, is very prominent again.

The 1850 compromise was a series of bills in Congress that sought to resolve this problem. The compromise contained five main provisions and established California as a free state and submitted it to Utah and New Mexico to decide on the matter itself. It was destined to be a temporary solution. Some aspects, such as the Fugitive Slave Act, serve to increase tension between North and South.

The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854

Engineered by Senator Stephen A. Douglas (1813-1861) from Illinois. The Kansas-Nebraska Act was the last major compromise that sought to unite the Union. Proved to be the most controversial, allowing Kansas to decide whether it would enter the union as slaves or free, a direct violation of the Missouri Compromise.
