The government drew imaginary lines, north of which slavery would be illegal, such as the Mason-Dixon line. There were formal compromises, such as the Compromise of 1820 and the Compromise of 1850.
The compromise was known as the Connecticut Compromise. They reached this compromise by the delegates debating and then they came up with a legislature with two houses: the House of Representatives and the Senate. This is all about my homework ! lol ! i need help too !
The compromise of 1850
Missouri compromise
In the over-heated political atmosphere, dominated by extremists, only the compromise candidate Lincoln was electable. But even he couldn't keep the country out of war. South Carolina immediately seceded. A final compromise was offered to Lincoln, but he rejected it because it would have allowed some extension of slavery.
