You are a United States senator from the state of Kentucky in 1860. America is on the brink of civil war unless someone can come up with a compromise that makes the North and South happy. Before you is a map (1820) of the United States with the Missouri Compromise line of 1820 on it. There is also a list of compromises that have been tried as well as those that have failed.
* Construct a compromise that will appease both abolitionists and pro-slavery people.
* Defend the reasons why you feel your plan will succeed.
Write essay defending your compromise. Try to maintain the balance of power in the Senate unless you can come up with an idea that will appease both sides while allowing Arizona and New Mexico to become Slave states.
PLEASEEEE HELPP!
