The Rocky Mountain Fur Company was founded by William Henry Ashley and Andrew Henry in 1822 to get beaver fur and they were so good at western exploration that they inspired folklore some of which were inspired by their rivalries with other fur companies such as the Hudson's Bay Company.
They were divided into engages, skin trappers and free trappers which was the division that the famous Joe Meek and Kit Carson were part of. They had to shut down over a decade later however when their business model was no longer sustainable.
An event that brought the nation together was the Missouri compromise. This compromise worked for about 30 years. This event made Missouri a slave state and Maine a free state. It also made the idea of 36 30. Anything above is free and anything below is slave. Except for Missouri witch was above. Until the Kansas- Nebraska act witch made the Missouri compromise unconstitutional. <span>The Kansas- Nebraska act pulled the nation apart. This act made the the Missouri compromise unconstitutional and made it so the people could choose whether or not a state was slave. This basically started a land grab of who gets the most land.
