The Missouri Compromise was an Act that passed in 1820 and ruled slavery in the western states, the compromise was one of the many motives that sparkled the Civil War. The repeal of the Missouri Compromise allowed individuals from Missouri rushed to Kansas to cast votes on the issue of slavery.
EXPLANATION:
The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 was an act that formed the Kansas and Nebraska territories. It was required by Democratic Senator Stephen A. Douglas, pertained by the 33rd United States Congress, and passed into law by President Franklin Pierce. Douglas started the bill to create new lands for growth and accelerate the construction of coast-to-coast trains, but the Kansas-Nebraska Act was most important to effectively revoke the Missouri Compromise, reinforce national conflict over slavery, and lead to a sequence of known armed wars as "Kansas Bleeding".
The policy of popular sovereignty fierce competition between anti and prosecution troops in the Kansas Territory. The proslavery brought the nearby Missouri population to illegally control Kansas politics. These illegitimate voters were recognized as border criminals. This illegal endeavor did not stop with politics. The president gave the governor a demand for Kansas force forces at two armies based in the region. Many people fear that the governor would employ troops to capture the principals of the Free State government.
The conflict between proslavery and antislavery made it difficult to rule the Kansas Territory. The election of the first legislator was seized by illegal voters from Missouri, who elected for the proslavery legislature. The fight over the election resulted in two separate governments to work in Kansas.
Bleeding Kansas was also called a mini civil war between antislavery and prosecution forces that occurred in Kansas from 1856 to 1865. Thousands of North and South arrived in the new territory made by the Kansas Territory replacing the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854.
