How did the area of territory of slave states and territories open to slavery change between 1854 and 1861?
Between 1854 and 1861, the area of territory open to slavery expanded significantly due to the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which allowed new territories to decide on the legality of slavery through popular sovereignty. This led to violent conflicts known as "Bleeding Kansas" as pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers rushed into the territories. Additionally, the Dred Scott decision in 1857 further entrenched the status of slavery, declaring that Congress had no power to regulate slavery in the territories. By 1861, the political landscape was increasingly polarized, with more territories and states aligning with the institution of slavery.
