Hence the collegeâs core belief that Creative Thought Matters.
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 of 1820 admitted Missouri as a slave state,  and Maine as a free state, to keep the balance of slave/non-slave  states equal in Congress. It also est â¦ ablished the 36-30 line, and  said that slavery would not be allowed above that line except for  in Missouri.   The Compromise of 1850 admitted California as a free state, and  gave the South stricter Fugitive Slave Laws as a way to balance  the deal.n 1820, the Missouri Compromise happened because of the desire of  Northern and Southern national leaders to maintain an even balance  between slavery-supporters and slaver â¦ y-opponents in America's  federal governing power.
