Answer:

Apart from the original 13 colonies, no official war took place before gaining territory. This cession also caused debates about slavery, which then lead to the great compromise of 1850. This brought out past arguments, and a new solution was needed. California entered as a free state with promises to the South of receiving slave territory in Utah and New Mexico. The fugitive slave law was also passed with the compromise which horrified abolitionists and northerners. The law forced any citizen, northern or southern, to have to help in catching any suspected fugitive slave. This law pretty much allowed any white man to take any free black civilian as a slave. All this ends up leading in something very major. The civil war.

Explanation: conflict has led to many geographical shifts mainly in Europe. You have WW1 examples which resulted in many conflicts given all the violence that there was. You have treaties made without other countries’ consents like the Treaty of Versailles. You also have the creation of new countries such as Poland, Yugoslavia, Lithuania, Latvia, the separation or independence of Hungary from Austria. Those small countries surrounding Russia were brought up to stop the spread of communism, since communism was spreading like a “plague” therefore communism wouldn’t reach the powers. Then you had Poland which was established and was used in other to block Russia’s attempt of fighting for land from the regions of the great powers. Poland was there as a sort of blockade between Russia and Germany, Britain, and France. Hope that is clearer:)
