You may think that things are heated in Washington today, but the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 had members of Congress so angry they pulled out their weapons -- and formed the Republican Party.

Comment on:
In the 1850s, most white northerners were not abolitionists and yet there was widespread opposition in the North to the Kansas-Nebraska Act. Why?
Why did collapse of the Second Party System make political compromise between North and South less likely?
When and how did other developments of the 1850s heighten sectional tensions?
