The correct answer is B. Many of the settlers of Missouri were slaveowners from the South.

Explanation:

Missouri's first settlers were slaveholders that had large plantations in the area.

Missouri, initially part of the Purchase of Louisiana, was admitted as a slave state on August 10, 1821 as part of the Missouri Compromise.

In the early years of the nineteenth century, although a slave state, Missouri was not a fiery defender of slavery, so the controversy on this issue was very broad. When Abraham Lincoln won the presidential election, the state government convened a convention to reconsider its relationship with the Union; In the voting, the secessionist delegates were defeated and it was declared that there was no cause to break with the Union.

Therefore, during the Civil War, Missouri was divided: some parts adhered to the Union while others joined the Confederate states.
