NO,because it splits the nation in half. "later starts the civil war."
The Missouri Compromise temporarily settled the debate over slavery by allowing Missouri enter the Union as a slave state. Maine was allowed to enter the Union as a free state.
There was not a major decision that led to it but there were many that led to it such as the dred Scott decision and the Missouri compromise and the compromise of 1850 and the Lincoln- Douglas debate
Slavery was a central issue in the debate over Missouri's statehood due to the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which sought to maintain the balance between free and slave states in the Union. Missouri's request to enter as a slave state threatened to upset this balance, prompting intense political conflict. The compromise ultimately allowed Missouri to enter as a slave state while Maine entered as a free state, and it established a boundary for slavery in future territories. This struggle highlighted the growing sectional tensions that would eventually lead to the Civil War.
Not battle, but a debate. The Missouri Compromise of 1820.
In 1819, the issue of slavery became prominent with the Missouri Compromise, which aimed to address the balance between free and slave states as Missouri sought admission to the Union. The debate highlighted the growing tensions between the North and South regarding the expansion of slavery into new territories. Ultimately, the compromise allowed Missouri to enter as a slave state while Maine entered as a free state, establishing a line (the 36°30' parallel) to separate future free and slave territories. This compromise marked a significant moment in the escalating conflict over slavery in the United States.

The constitutionality of the Missouri Compromise was a subject of debate. Some argued that it violated the principle of states' rights, while others believed it was necessary to maintain the balance between free and slave states. Ultimately, the Compromise was overturned by the Supreme Court in the Dred Scott decision.
The Missouri Compromise of 1820 temporarily eased tensions over slavery by allowing Missouri to enter the Union as a slave state while Maine entered as a free state, maintaining the balance of power between free and slave states. Additionally, it established the 36°30' parallel, prohibiting slavery in the northern part of the Louisiana Purchase territory. This compromise postponed the national debate over slavery by creating a temporary solution, but it did not resolve the underlying conflicts, ultimately only delaying more intense discussions and conflicts in the years to come.
No, the Missouri Compromise did not forever end the debate on slavery in the United States. While it temporarily resolved issues related to the expansion of slavery by establishing a boundary between free and slave states, it ultimately highlighted the deepening divisions between the North and South. The compromise was later rendered ineffective by events such as the Kansas-Nebraska Act and the Dred Scott decision, which reignited tensions and contributed to the outbreak of the Civil War.
There was no Civil War while the Missouri Compromise was in force. It kept the peace for thirty years. It was the debate over the admission of California, following the Mexican War, that made the Missouri Compromise inoperable (because the new state extended so far on either side of the line) and a new Compromise had to be worked out. This one did not last.

The Compromise of 1850 undid much of the work of the Missouri Compromise made a few years prior. Unfortunately, the Compromise of 1850 did not alleviate the tensions of the slave debate, and the Civil War broke out just ten years later.
