The crisis over Missouri Compromise exposed the divisions of the  country on the contentious issue of slavery. The line that  literally divided the territories that would beâ¦come states put the  Union into a precarious balance that could easily tip in favor of  the slave states.
The Missouri Compromise was a United States federal statute devised by Henry Clay. It regulated slavery in the country's western territories by prohibiting the practice in the former Louisiana Territory north of the parallel 36Â°30â² north, except within the boundaries of the proposed state of Missouri.he United States in 1819 (the light orange and light green areas were not then part of the United States). The Missouri Compromise prohibited slavery in the unorganized territory of the Great Plains (upper dark green) and permitted it in Missouri (yellow) and the Arkansas Territory (lower blue area).
