Answer:

Bleeding Kansas

Step-by-step explanation:

Bleeding Kansas was the name given to a part of an area on the Kansas Territory. It occurred because the Kansas-Nebraska Act decided to let people decided if the area should be a free state or slave state, with that people from all over the country went there to vote, which caused the violence. Proslavery and anti-slavey flooded Kansas trying to influence the decision and violence erupted between them.
