Which compromise did president monroe approve that provided balance between slave and non-slave holding states by restricting slavery north of the 36°30" line? a) great compromise b) compromise of 1850 c) missouri compromise d) three fifths compromise

The correct answer is C) Missouri Compromise

In this compromise, the 36 30 line was introduced as the farthest that slavery would be allowed north in all new and old states. In addition, Missouri was added as a slave state in the south while also having Maine become a separate state to counter it in the senate and prevent slave states from having too much power over non slave states.
