Why wasn't the Missouri Compromise of 1820 enough to end tension between the North and South by the 1840s?

History

Lerok [7]4 years ago
5 0

Answer: Some new territories went both above and below the line of compromise.

Explanation:

The Missouri Compromise divided Northern and Southern states on the slaves issue. The compromised passed as law in 1820, <u>it forbade slavery in Louisiana and it considered Missouri as a slave state. Anything north the 36/30 parallel was considered slave free.</u>

However, since the state of Missouri was considered a slave state, the South had one state more than the North and it was considered that the slave states had more power, because a slave counted as 3/5 of a person.

Thomas Jefferson predicted that dividing the country between slave and slave free states would lead the country to civil war.

Why was the Silk Road important
ad-work [718]

Answer:

A) It facilitated cultural exchange between Asia and the Middle East.

Explanation:

This answer makes the most sense because the Silk Road was the main reason why there was cultural exchange between these two regions.

Judaism and Islam did not spread from China to other regions, in fact Judaism   originated in Israel while Islam originated in Saudi Arabia.

D makes absolutely no sense because there's an ocean between these continents, and the silk road was definitely not a water-way trade route.
