I belive that it could be true because the kansas nebraska act caused much contrvesy beetwen latitude and land boundrys.the act also over turned the missuri comprimise when it allowed states to decide on there own for the fact to allow slavery or not this led to the periodof violence known as Bleeding Kansas.

Henry Clay of Kentucky, John C. Calhoun of South Carolina, and Daniel Webster of Massachusetts all dominated national politics from the end of the War of 1812 until there deaths in the 1850s but before there deaths they each gave speeches which forshadowded the sivil war while clay promted the missuri comprimise calhoun promted against it as each of the giants pleaded with each other attempting to meet demands webster just wanted them to maccept the souths demands an allow it to stay in the union
both of them were over the issue of slavery both admitted states but the compromise of 1850 was over Texas new mexico territories and the Missouri compromise settled missuris issue
westward expansion trigered north and south factions to dispute whether to allow slavery into new territories was kept at the forefront of congresional topic. An example of the differences between the north and the south was the issue of slavery would be the Northwest Ordinance of 1787
