States That Seceded From The United States

The compromise of 1850 had 5 laws passed that dealt with slavery. California wanted to join the union and to be a free state. Which meant they wouldn't have slaves. South didn't like this idea because that would unbalance the free and slave states. It was passed, and the slave trade in D.C. was ended to. http://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/ourdocs/Compromise1850.html http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/aia/part4/4p2951.html
