Answer:

It created a dividing line between free and slave states.

Explanation:

The Missouri Compromise, also called the 1820 Commitments, was an agreement passed in 1820 between pro-slavery and pro-abolitionist groups in the United States, primarily involving the regulation of slave labor in the western territories.

This agreement delimited the slave territories and free territories through the 36 ° 30 'parallel, regulating the creation of the new members of the Union.

However, California's request in 1850 to join the Union as non-slave-owning states triggered a serious crisis, since it disobeyed the Missouri Compromise. Utah and New Mexico also called for its annexation to the Union like neutral states, while the abolitionist campaign in the United States grew.

With these issues the Commitment lost its meaning and in 1854 the Congress approved the entry of new states, with the right to decide on slavery in their territories. The tension between slaveholders and abolitionists increased, culminating in the armed confrontation between North and South known as the Civil War.

Even though the American Mafia does not have written rules, it does have an elaborate set of norms that govern behavior.

<h3>Who are the American Mafia?</h3>

The American Mafia, an Italian-American organized crime network operating in cities across the United States, particularly New York and Chicago, rose to power during Prohibition in the 1920s due to its success in the illegal alcohol trade.

<h3>What are norms?</h3>

Social norms are shared standards of acceptable behavior in groups. Social norms can be either informal understandings that regulate the behavior of members of society, or they can be codified in rules and laws.

Examples from Western culture include:

long lines at store counters,
saying "bless you" when someone sneezes, or
pushing the door behind you to let people into a building.
