The 1820 Missouri Compromise set the dividing line between slave and free states at "36 degrees 30 minutes".

<h3>What is Missouri Compromise (1820)?</h3>

In order to maintain the country's balance between slave and free states, this legislation simultaneously accepted Maine as a non-slave state and Missouri as a slave state. In the remaining Louisiana Territory, above the 36° 30' latitude line, slavery was likewise prohibited.

Some key features of Missouri compromise are-

  • The long-standing distribution of slave and free states would be altered with the acquisition of the Louisiana Territory and Missouri's quest for statehood.
  • Slavery became a contentious topic within Congress.
  • In order to maintain the nation's balance of slave and free states, Congress passed this legislation and simultaneously admitted Maine as a non-slave state and Missouri as a slave state.
  • The Missouri Compromise also suggested that slavery be outlawed in the remaining Louisiana Territory north of the 36 degrees 30' latitude line.
  • Before the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 eliminated it, this clause was in effect for 34 years.
  • The Supreme Court decided against the Missouri Compromise in 1857.

Why did river valleys most help farming impact the lives of Neolithic peoples?
grigory [225]

Neolithic revolution is called the first radical transformation of the way of life of humanity, which goes from being nomadic to sedentary and having a collecting economy (hunting, fishing and gathering) to producer (agriculture and livestock).

This process took place more than 9000 years ago (VIII millennium BC) in response to the climate crisis that occurred at the beginning of the Holocene, after the last glaciation and which, in terms related to the history of culture, corresponds to the passage of the Paleolithic period (carved stone) to the Neolithic (new stone) and hence its name. In the first place, it affected the wide area that, due to its appearance on the map, has received the name of fertile crescent or fertile crescent. It includes from the Egyptian part of the valley of the Nile to Mesopotamia (the territory between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers), passing through the coastal strip of the Mediterranean Levante and the mountainous region of southeastern Turkey. Within it, the places where the oldest archaeological evidence of neolithization has been found, that is, the substitution of the stone carved by the polished stone for making weapons and tools, do not come precisely from the alluvial plains of the great rivers, but of deposits located in a narrower area around them (Jericho or Chatal Huyuk). This is not strange, since in the alluvial plains of the Nile, the Tigris and Euphrates, the stone is scarcer.
