Answer:

B. Kansas

Step-by-step explanation:

Kansas is one of the states in the United States of America. It shared borders with other states in America and they are Nebraska on the north; Missouri on the east; Oklahoma on the south; and Colorado on the west.

Between the years 1854 to 1861 there existed the presence of rival pro-slavery and antislavery governments at the same time.

The Anti slavery group or governments referred to themselves as the "Free Staters" while the pro-slavery groups or government which are Missourians where referred to as "Border Ruffians".

The presence of these two governments in Kansas led to a lot of fight outbreaks, murders, political unrest, raids, electoral fraud, open violence for so many years.
