Answer:

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1850 consisted of five separate bills that attempted to resolve the dispute over slavery in newly added territories of the United states, concurrent to the Mexican-American War (1846 - 1848).  It admitted California as a free state, but allowed Utah and New Mexico to decide their position on slavery. Furthermore, it defined an improved Mexico-Texas border, making it easier for slave owners to recover runaways (Fugitive Slave Act).  

The main points of the compromise were:  

- Permitted slavery in Washington D.C. but abolished the slave trade. (Owning slaves were allowed, but not the selling, or purchasing in D.C.)

- California was added to the union as a "free state."

- Established New Mexico and Utah as territories that could decide their position on slavery through popular sovereignty.  

- Defined new boundaries between Mexico and Texas, as well as awarding Texas $10 million in compensation for the Mexican-American War.  

- Established the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which required citizens to assist in apprehending and returning runaway slaved to their owners, and denied enslaved people a right to trial by jury.  

Hope this helps! :)

Artemon [7]

Answer: The Communist Leader that the US tried to overthrow was Fidel Castro.

Explanation: Fidel Castro had been a concern to U.S. policymakers since he seized power in Cuba with a revolution in January 1959. Castro’s attacks on U.S. companies and interests in Cuba, his inflammatory anti-American rhetoric, and Cuba’s movement toward a closer relationship with the Soviet Union led U.S. officials to conclude that the Cuban leader was a threat to U.S. interests in the Western Hemisphere.
