The 1850 Compromise was an agreement between the North and South that allowed slavery to continue in states where it already existed but prevented its expansion to new states. The North wanted slavery abolished but agreed to the compromise to prevent conflict, while the South wanted to expand slavery to new territories but agreed to limit it to existing slave states. This compromise differed from previous agreements in that it addressed the ongoing issue of slavery rather than other topics.
