Think about the compromises that occurred in the United States before 1850. Do you think the solutions set forth in those compromises were good ideas? Why do you think the compromises did not hold the nation together?

An example can be the Missouri Compromise. According to it, a line was made and it was decided which countries could have slaves and which not. Now, it was considered to be a relatively good compromise because it helped the Union stay together, but watching it from the modern times it was most certainly not a good compromise because any compromise that establishes slavery anywhere is definitely not a good one.
