<span>The primary reason why the US had become so
incredibly divided to the point of no return by 1860 was because the US

The correct answer is A) Slavery would be abolished in Washington DC.
The Compromise of 1850 was a critical law, as it helped to prevent the Civil War from starting in the 1850's. Due to America's expansion into the west and the newly gained territory after the Mexican American War, Northern and Southern politicians were arguing constantly over whether or not slavery will exist in these new territories.
To make both sides satisfied, Henry Clay helped to develop the Compromise of 1850.This included California becoming a free state, New Mexico and Utah using popular sovereignty to determine whether or not slavery would exist, and the slave trade would be outlawed in Washington DC. However, this law said nothing about the actual institution of slavery in DC.
There were several instances during the colonial or Revolutionary Era where enslaved people attempted revolt or fight to their own independence. The first nation where a slave uprising was successful was <u>Haiti</u>.
The <u>rebellion </u>resulted in the creation of brutal slave codes that would not be lifted until after the Civil War.
Haiti is an antillean country in America located in the Caribbean Sea. Haiti stands out worldwide for being the first country in which slavery was abolished in 1804, after achieving its independence from France.
This revolution influenced the thinking of the slaves in the other American nations. However, the rulers became more restrictive to avoid the rebelion of the slaves.
According to the above, the complete paragraph would be:
There were several instances during the colonial or Revolutionary Era where enslaved people attempted revolt or fight to their own independence. The first nation where a slave uprising was successful was <u>Haiti</u>.
