Question

Five things the federal government did after the Mexican War that angered Mississippians

Answer 1

The American Civil War (1861-1865) left Mississippi in chaos with its social structures overturned, its economy in ruins, and its people shattered. Quitman and many other Mississippians disagreed; they were angered by the Compromise of 1850. The Kansas-Nebraska Act angered many Mississippians since they continued to believe that Congress could not prevent slavery from being brought into the territories. Hope this helps.
