Explanation:

The Compromise of 1850 was a series of five laws, passed by the US Congress, that pertained to slavery and territories that had fallen into American hands during the Mexican-American War.

The purpose of the Compromise was to maintain a balance between the interests of the southern, slave-state, and "free" states without slavery. The key points of the laws were:

-California was admitted to the Union as a free state.

-The slave trade in the District of Columbia was banned.

-The territories of New Mexico and Utah were organized following the principle of Popular Sovereignty, whereby residents would determine the status of slavery in their territory through elections.

-The Fugitive Slave Act prohibited any support for slaves who had escaped to the free north.

-Texas was forced to give up land in the west and received $ 10 million in compensation.

Stephen Douglas, an Illinois senator, Henry Clay and Daniel Webster were the main proponents of the Compromise that met with fierce opposition from the southern states.  The laws were signed by President Millard Fillmore between 9 and 20 September 1850.
