Speaker of the House of Representatives, Henry Clay, who came from the boarder state of Kentucky, mediated between the North and the South, concerning the territory of Missouri becoming a state.

With the exception of Missouri, slavery was prohibited in states north of that line.

When the vast new lands acquired from Mexico came up for statehood, Congress had to repeal the Missouri Compromise, and work out a new one. This one didn't last, and the nation started sliding towards civil war.


Was theMissouri Compromise long-term effect of the plan to delay the Civil War or hasten the Civil War?
