Citizens who lived in Kansas must be people who could vote; thus, they must show proof of residence to vote. As for violence, the government must have positioned armies in Kansas to stop the violence carried out by border ruffians.

 

EXPLANATION:

The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 was an act that formed the Kansas and Nebraska territories. It was enlisted by Democratic Senator Stephen A. Douglas, pertained by the 33rd United States Congress, and passed into law by President Franklin Pierce. Douglas began the bill to create new lands for growth and accelerate the construction of coast-to-coast railroads, but the Kansas-Nebraska Act was most prominent to effectively repeal the Missouri Compromise, reinforce national conflict over slavery, and lead to a sequence of armed battle known as "Bleeding Kansas".

The popular sovereignty policy started the competition between anti and prosecution troops in the Kansas Territory. The proslavery forces brought the nearby Missouri population to illegally control Kansas politics by joining the vote. These unlawful voters were known as border ruffians. This unlawful act did not end with politics. The president gave the governor a demand for Kansas forces at two army bases in the region. Many people feared that the governor would employ troops to capture the many leaders of the Free State government.

The conflict among proslavery and antislavery made it difficult to regulate the Kansas Territory. The election of the first legislator was annexed by unlawful voters from Missouri, who voted for the legislature of proslavery. The competition of the elections caused two distinctive governments to operate in Kansas.

Bleeding Kansas was known as a mini civil war among proslavery and antislavery forces that occurred in Kansas from 1856 to 1865. Thousands of North people and South people arrived in the new territory created by the Kansas Territory replacing the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854.
