    From 1840 to 1860, sectional tensions between the North and South increased as the United States expanded westward through Manifest Destiny and acquired new territories in the southwest. As western territories grew in population and applied for statehood, regional disagreements intensified over the balance of power between free and slave states, the role of the federal government, and the expansion of slavery. Several events exacerbated these sectional divisions, including the Compromise of 1850, the Fugitive Slave Law, Uncle Tom's Cabin, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, Bleeding Kansas, the Dred Scott decision, and John Brown's Raid.
