Answer:

The Correct Answer is C.

Explanation:

  • When America is getting mature, extra states are being added to the United States and the issue of Slavery becomes the major issue.
  • During 1850 the problem of Slavery came through as another issue. California was becoming a state and wanted to be a free state without any slavery.
  • States mainly Southern opposed this because if California becomes a slave-free state then there will be only 12 states left with slaves and there would be 13 slave-free states.
  • This would mean the Free States have the majority than the Slave States.
