Answer: They were national laws to balance power between slave and free states

Explanation: The Missouri Compromise, the Compromise of 1850, and "Bleeding Kansas" all dealt with the expansion of slavery into the western territories. Each of them involved the balance of "free" and "slave" states in the Union.
