How did the Compromise of 1850 settle the dispute over California becoming a new state?

The compromise allowed California to become a free state and eliminated slavery in DC, but called for a stronger law to help recapture runaways.

The California Territory was split into two states, California and Nevada, and one allowed slavery and one didn’t.

Missouri was allowed into the Union as a slave state and California was admitted as a free state.

California was not admitted as a state – they were told they would need to wait until after the Civil War was over to apply again.

Why did violence erupt in Kansas in 1855 over the issue of slavery?

Abolitionists were trying to hide runaways in the Kansas Territory so they wouldn’t be caught by slave catchers.

Kansas voted to secede from the Union and violence broke out between those who were in favor and those who were opposed to the decision.

The election to determine if slavery would be allowed was invalid because of illegal voting, so both pro and anti-slavery forces began attacking one another in protest.

The President sent in U.S. troops to force residents of Kansas to free their slaves.

How did the Supreme Court rule in the case of Dred Scott, the slave who was suing for his freedom?

They ruled that Scott could not be set free because he returned to a slave state, but his owner could not take him to a free state again.

The Court said Scott was not a free man, could not sue because he was not a citizen, and that slaves could be considered property by their owners.

After the ruling, Scott was set free because he’d spent time in a state that did not allow slavery.

The Supreme Court decided that slavery was illegal in all cases and Dred Scott, along with all other slaves, were freed.

Why were Southerners so angry over the election of Abraham Lincoln to the presidency in 1960?

The election results were fixed and Southern candidates’ names were purposely left off the ballots so Lincoln would win.

During his campaign, Lincoln stated his first action as president would be to abolish slavery and force the South to free their slaves.

Lincoln helped free slaves on the Underground Railroad, and the South resented an abolitionist being elected as president.

Southerners believed that Lincoln would abolish slavery as president, even though he’d stated that he only wanted to keep it from spreading.
