How were the North and south divided in the Cotton gin, the Louisiana purchase, the Abolishment of slave importation, the Missouri compromise, texas admitted as a state, Mexican-American War, The Wilmont Proviso, The California Gold Rush/Admission as a state/Compromise of 1850, Fugitive Slave act, Uncle Tom's Cabin is published, Bleeding Kansas, The Sumner Caning, Dred Scott Decision, Lincoln-Douglas Debates, and the Raid on Harpers Ferry?
Uhm idk if we can answer all these
But the north was anti-slaver and south was pro slavery
All territories gained needed to pick a side weather to be a slave state or not
Mexican american war created a couple of new states
Gold rush created california
Cotton gin was a product that helped produce cotton faster so its important to southern plantations
North was an industrialized economy
Uncle tom was a book written by a slave about the horrors of slavery
Fugitive slave act was to catch escaped slaves from north
Oml this is a lot to give basic info on uhh you do the rest
Remember north against slaver and south embraced it
