There was great tension between pro-slavery and anti-slavery representatives over how new territories won would handle the issue of slavery.

The Mexican-American War and the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, forced onto the remnant Mexican government,  drew some criticism in the U.S. for their casualties, monetary cost, and heavy-handedness. Furthermore, the question of how to treat the new acquisitions also intensified the debate over slavery and in many ways inflamed it, as potential westward expansion of the institution took an increasingly central and heated theme in national debates preceding the American Civil War.

lesya [120]
The correct answer is amending the Constitution.

In Article V of the US Constitution, it discusses how there needs to be a 2/3rds vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.  Along with this, the possible amendment needs to be ratified (aka approved) by at least 3/4ths of the states within the US. If both of these requirements are met, then the bill becomes an amendment.

What happened to the Mississippian Tribe? (Hint: What happened when the Spanish settlers came to GA?)
GREYUIT [131]
The various groups of Timucua spoke dialects of the Timucua language. At the time of European first contact, the territory occupied by speakers of Timucuan dialects stretched from the Altamaha River and Cumberland Island in present-day Georgia as far south as Orlando in the interior of Florida, and from the Atlantic coast to the Aucilla River, yet never reaching the Gulf of Mexico.  

<span>"Timucua" (from "Thimogna") was originally the term used by the Saturiwa (of the area near present-day Jacksonville) to refer to the related people living north of the Santa Fe River between the St. Johns River and the Suwannee River. The Timucua Province of the Spanish mission system originally was this area. This was also the area of the Timucua proper dialect of the Timucuan language. During the 17th century the Spanish mission Province of Timucua was extended to include the area between the Suwannee River and the Aucilla River. The population of the Timucuan people at the time of European contact was around 50,000 people by one estimate, around 200,000 by another. The Timucua were organized into at least 35 chiefdoms at the time. While alliances and confederacies arose between the chiefdoms from time to time, the Timucua were  never organized into a single political unit. The various groups of Timucua speakers practiced several different cultural traditions.</span>
