In 1860, President James Buchanan sought to avoid controversy over slavery as the nation was on the brink of civil war. He believed that the issue should be resolved through compromise rather than conflict, and he did not take a strong stance against the expansion of slavery. Buchanan's indecisive approach and failure to address the growing tensions contributed to the deepening divide in the country. His presidency is often criticized for its inability to navigate the looming crisis effectively.
The congressional crisis in 1850 was primarily precipitated by the contentious debate over the expansion of slavery into newly acquired territories following the Mexican-American War. The introduction of the Compromise of 1850 aimed to address these tensions by allowing California to enter the Union as a free state while also implementing stricter fugitive slave laws and allowing popular sovereignty in other territories. This compromise sparked intense opposition and division among lawmakers, reflecting the deepening sectional conflict between the North and South. Ultimately, the crisis highlighted the inability of Congress to find a lasting solution to the issue of slavery, setting the stage for further discord leading up to the Civil War.

His presidency is often associated with both the challenges of the crisis and the subsequent recovery efforts.

The Proclamation did not cause any crisis, as it did not directly change the slavery situation. It defused a crisis for Lincoln, who was worried about British intervention on the side of the Confederates. The Proclamation turned the war into an official crusade against slavery, so free nations abroad could not help the South without looking pro-slavery themselves.
