I think this event was politically important because of how it affected those who lived in Missouri who were slave owners. Henry Clay crafted and advocated for this compromise because he is the one who created and founder of this compromise/law. A senator that's named Stephen A. Douglas was also apart of this Compromise and what he did to make this politically important was he secured all the votes for this law and balancing free and slave states. The Compromise also establish a 36'30 line to prohibit slavery in the north territories of the Louisiana purchase. A bad part of this law was it created a debate throughout the nation of a expansion of slavery it good so bad it divided the nation.

The violence also helped the republican party grow more which this party was created to stop the spread of slavery.
