Which was a reaction to the kansas-nebraska act of 1854?

The most probable reaction of the Kansas Nebraska Act of 1854 was the Civil war. Because it was the single most reason for leading to the Civil war.The story began when the settlers wanted to move to the area now known as the Nebraska. But they were not allowed to move there at once as the area was not announced as the territory.

However, the southern representatives of the parliament were not in hurry to pass law for recognizing Nebraska as the territory as the slavery was outlawed by the Missouri Compromise of 1820.

At this point senator Stephen A Douglass proposed the Douglass bill which is known as the Kansas Nebraska act which allowed each state to decide about the slavery. This bill divided the Whig party into two parts.The southern Whig voted for the bill and the Northern Whigs voted against the bill.Later the northern joined other anti slavery organizations to form the Republican party under Abraham Lincoln.

As a result tension arose in the both sides which resulted in the Civil war as a consequence.
