During the 19th century, the main issue of territorial expansion was slavery. Northerners didn't want slavery to extend into the western regions, while the south did. It was basically the issue of Missouri (Missouri Compromise) all over again, but with soooooo much more territory to deal with. This growing sectionalism between the north and the south would later tear the nation apart, in what is known as the Civil War.
