Stalin took a number of actions that heightened the tension between the US and USSR.
<u>Berlin Wall: </u> He was able to show the power of the USSR, and make a symbol of Communism that stopped people from entering the Democratic nations.
<u>Supplying other Communist countries and rebels: </u> The USSR helped supply the rebels to take overthrow standing governments and setting up Communist governments. Because the US did not want Communism to spread over the world, it heightened the Cold War tension.
<u>Supplying nukes to Cuba - Cuban Missile Crisis: </u> The USSR supplied ~100 nuclear weapons to Cuba, which made the weapons close enough to strike the US. The US then took steps to contain the missiles. It ended with the Russian nukes being returned home, and the US missiles were removed from Turkey and other NATO nations near the USSR.
<u>Iron control:</u> Stalin started the hate because he did not give more rights to his citizens, and this heightened the tension, because the US wanted him to give his people more rights.

The problem with taking so much territory from Mexico in the Mexican-American War was that no system existed to determine whether or not the new states would be slave or free.
The Compromise of 1850 reassured both the North and South in that it admitted one free state and one slave state, and the balance in Congress between pro and anti-slavery Senators and Representatives was maintained. Secondly, both sides agreed that from that point on, popular sovereignty would decide the status of each new state. That means each state would vote yes or no on slavery and the majority would win.
Lastly, the South wanted to be reassured that rnuaway slaves were not being helped by abolitionists in the North, so the Fugitive Slave Act was included in the compromise, which made it illegal to aid runaway slaves in the North.
The BATTLE OF SARATOGA was the turning point of the Revolutionary War.
