Detailed explanation-1: -The correct order is the Missouri Compromise (1820), Uncle Tom’s Cabin (1852), the Kansas-Nebraska Act (1854), Bleeding Kansas (1856), and secession (1860 and 1861).
Detailed explanation-2: -Anti-slavery supporters were outraged because, under the terms of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, slavery would have been outlawed in both territories since they were both north of the 36º30’ N dividing line between “slave” and “free” states. After months of debate, the Kansas-Nebraska Act passed on May 30, 1854.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Kansas-Nebraska Act repealed the Missouri Compromise, created two new territories, and allowed for popular sovereignty. It also produced a violent uprising known as “Bleeding Kansas, ” as proslavery and antislavery activists flooded into the territories to sway the vote.
Detailed explanation-4: -This legislation admitted Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a non-slave state at the same time, so as not to upset the balance between slave and free states in the nation. It also outlawed slavery above the 36º 30’ latitude line in the remainder of the Louisiana Territory.
