The correct answer is California’s entrance as a free state would upset the legislative balance in favor of the North.

When California applied for statehood, there was a balance of voters in Congress made up of two groups: one group who was in favor of the expansion of the institution of slavery and another group against the expansion of slavery.

To keep these groups from fighting, many different compromises were made throughout the 1800's in order to help keep the peace. An example of this would be the Compromise of 1850. In this compromise, California is admitted as a free state. However,the Southern states get a stronger fugitive slave law in return. This fighting over a balance of power between slave states and non slave states was one of the most significant causes of the American Civil War.

The most effective tactic the colonists used against the hated taxes was a buying of British goods.
aivan3 [116]

<em>Hi There!!</em>

<em>I think the answer is </em><em>False</em><em>.</em>

<em>Because, I think there was that it was an indirect tax that was hard to protest. related to molasses, which was an everyday item. only required traders to pay the new tax. was an example of taxation without representation.</em>

<em>P.S </em><em>Tell me if this is wrong...</em>

GoodLuck!!
