North America is a continent geographically. It is not all under a single government.
Los Angeles has significant population and some territorial size, but its city government is not sovereign. It is under a state government (California) and a national government (the United States).
Similarly, Texas -- at this point in history -- is not independently sovereign, but is one of the 50 states that make up the USA as a true state with all the characteristics listed.

After the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers rushed into Kansas to try to sway the outcome of the issue, and violence between the two sides occurred. The term "bleeding Kansas" was used because of the bloodshed.
I believe the south suffered more because of the destruction left by the Union army, especially during Shermans march to the see where he burnt cities to the ground, like Atlanta, Georgia.
