The backstory of the Dred Scott v. Sanford, was essentially that Dred Scott, a slave of Sanford, sued for his freedom, since his master moved to a free territory, he should be automatically freed, per the requirements of the land. However, the Supreme Court ruled that he still had to stay as a slave, as he was Sanford's property, and property is not limited simply because of the type of territory they were in. Essentially, as long as the slave was bought at a slave state, the owner can keep him/her regardless if they move to a free state or not.
The effect of this on the North was public outrage, as they believed that the south would overstep and become too powerful as compared to the North. After all, the ability to move slaves into newly 'created' western territories, coupled with the historical 3/5th Compromise, resulted in large significant portion which may become slave territory, thereby tipping the balance of governmental power in favor of the south. The second effect of the Dred Scott case was the doubling down of the efforts towards the Underground Railroad, as well as the extension to British Canada, which was a free state. In essence, it was not enough for slaves to escape to a northern territory, as they can still be caught and returned to their masters under the Dred Scott v. Sanford ruling. However, if they were to escape to Canada, the US would then have no authority or obligation in which to capture the escapee.
Essentially, the North protested the case ruling, and put in more effort in ensuring that escaping slaves would stay free, by extending the underground railroad into Canada.

in the olden days there was less of a concern on issues that are major today such as kidnapping so kids could walk free for the most part. also the economy was great and horrble
The government of England in the age of Elizabeth I<span> was very different to what it is today.</span> Queen Elizabeth<span> was very much a </span>ruler<span>, unlike the </span>monarchs<span> today who are largely figureheads, and had to make all the major decisions of government herself</span>
What it doesn’t make sense but maybe the three kingdoms has something to do with it
Civilization is the establishment of culture and a system of government in a society. And due to such privilege the society enjoys it thrives and grow larger and there would be a population growth and also poverty would be present and thus slums are created due to such growth but the system didn't change to cope up with the change happening.
