Answer:

idk the exact answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

In an effort to preserve the balance of power in Congress between slave and free states, the Missouri Compromise was passed in 1820 admitting Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state. Prohibits further introduction of slaves into Missouri. Also, when a slave turns 25, they are free.

Above this message was the effect of the Missouri Compromise
