The correct answer is A) They pressured the United States to take sides.
Great Britain and France were both heavily involved in colonizing the North American continent during the 17th and 18th centuries. Once France and England both had a strong foothold in North America, they made the citizens pick sides when fighting. A perfect example of this was the French and Indian War (1754-1763).
When America became independent (1776) the hope was that the US could avoid this past experience of being involved in the affairs of these two countries. However, this was not the case. Great Britain and France both got the US involved in their fighting. The US ended up having problems with both France and Great Britain as seen in the XYZ Affair, Citizen Genet Affair, etc.

The text stated that the pioneers would be able to vote to decide whether or not to introduce slavery, in the name of "popular sovereignty". Unsurprisingly, opponents of slavery denounced the law, viewing it as a concession to the slave power of the South. The new Republican Party, which was created in opposition to this law, set itself the goal of stopping the expansion of slavery and quickly became the dominant force in all the northern states.
The result was a series of violence and murders called Bleeding Kansas between 1854 and 1861, pitting pro and anti-slavery settlers in the new Kansas Territory, and revealing itself as the origin of the Civil War.
