Do you think the Compromise of 1850 was enough to resolve the differences between North and South? In one paragraph, explain why or why not.

The compromise of 1850 was the bill passed
by the US for the confrontation between
slaves and the state. The compromise was
unable to resolve the regional conflict in the
US.
What was the 1850 compromise effect?
The 1850 compromise was insufficient to
reconcile the north and south because
geographical differences still existed, and
thus did not resolve the differences.
The south required slaves to work the land,
which was a major factor in the abolition of
slavery.
Meanwhile, the predominantly industrial
north thrived on factories and thus did not
require slaves.
Furthermore, the 1850 compromise resulted
in the 1850 Fugitive Slave Act, which was not
enforced by the north.
This clearly demonstrates the ideological
differences between the north and the
south, which have yet to be resolved.
