Why was popular sovereignty so well-supported as a just and fair way to settle the slavery question? It seemed to have worked well in the Compromise of 1850. It allowed citizens of a territory to decide the slave issue. It allowed Congress to have some input into the political events in territories. It gave people a chance to let the Federal government decide for them.

Answers

The correct answers are A)  It seemed to have worked well in the Compromise of 1850 and B) It allowed citizens of a territory to decide the slave issue.

Popular sovereignty was o well-supported as a just and fair way to settle the slavery question in that it seemed to have worked well in the Compromise of 1850 and it allowed citizens of a territory to decide the slave issue.

The political confrontation between free states and non-free states was one of the biggest political issues of that time. Southerners knew that their economy was based on slavery to produce crops in their plantations. That is why they opposed so much to the Northern abolitionist ideas. So popular sovereignty was the concept that allowed to settle the slavery issue in the United States at least, momentarily, in that the citizens were the ones that should have to decide.

Popular Sovereignty was well supported because the southerners argued that it wasn't fair for the south if the North was able to abolish slavery, why couldn't the south do it. It could also have started the Civil War earlier; the North and south were on the brink of war. The compromise of 1850 compromised admitting the state California into the Union, as a free state. What the south got out of that the North had to hunt down and bring back runaway slaves. Because of this decision, Northern Abolitionists were deeply upset from what Congress had done, AKA the House of Representatives and the Senate. This would later start fights in Congress. This also led South Carolina seceding from the Union.(Secession is when a state unlawfully breaks away from a country or province. This also led to the rest of the south except the state of Missouri to secede, and led to Emancipation Proclamation made and announced by the president at the time, President Abraham Lincoln. Also it led to his assassination of him, by John Wilkes Booth, a southerner Confederate. He was later found in a barn, then shot and killed. This led to inauguration of Vice President Andrew Johnson. Which also started Reconstruction; the 10 percent plan by Lincoln, the Wade Davis Bill, and the Radical Republicans. It also led to the black codes and the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendment.
