The Missouri Compromise was what sparked the outbreak of the American Civil War.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The Missouri Compromise intended to organize the regions where slavery would be legalized and where it would not be allowed.
  • The aim was to reduce the lack of agreement between the southern ruling class and the northern ruling class.
  • For this reason, the Missouri Compromise determined that slavery would be prohibited in the region above the 36º30' North Parallel, but would be allowed below the 36º30' North parallel.

The event that caused the Missouri Compromise to trigger the outbreak of civil war was the moment when the federal government allowed California, which was below the 36º30'N parallel, to be a region where slavery was prohibited. This made southerners feel disrespected and threatened to be forced to change their stances on slavery.

The acquisition of Mexican territory was seen as a form of expansion of the country and although slavery was an important issue in this acquisition, it did not trigger a reaction from the southern or northern states.

The Northwest Ordinance, in turn, was also carried out to expand the country and did not provoke any rift between north and south.
