How did Missouri compromise deal with the issue of slavery

History

Answer:

At the Missouri Compromise in 1819, Missouri applied for admission to the Union as a slave state. This sparked a major debate in the Senate on slavery. Northern congressmen believed it would create an imbalance in the relationship between slave states and free states. Therefore, a compromise was reached in 1820, the Missouri Compromise, according to which Missouri was incorporated into the Union as a slave state and Maine was incorporated as a free state. Furthermore, slavery was prohibited in the former Louisiana Territory to the 36° 30′ parallel.

Missouri would be admitted to the Union as a slave state, but then Maine would be freed. This would help balance the amount of slave and free states, putting the minds of the people at ease.

Why did some fugitives go to Canada instead of staying in northern states?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Some fugitives went to Canada instead of staying in northern states because they risked being captured in northern states.

Explanation:

During the time of slavery in the southern United States, escaping slaves had to leave the southern states in order to guarantee (to some extent) their freedom. Even so, many times the owners crossed the Mason-Dixon Line and captured the fugitives, either in open places in front of anyone, or with the collusion of the authorities. Therefore, once the Underground Railroad (the organization that was in charge of helping the slaves to escape) was formed, many routes were directed directly to Canada, so as not to saturate the routes to the great northern cities such as New York, as to guarantee the safety of slaves in a country that had abolished slavery in 1807.
