The Missouri Compromise was an effort by Congress to defuse the sectional and political rivalries triggered by the request of Missourilate in 1819 for admission as a state in which slavery would be permitted. At the time, the United States contained twenty-two states, evenly divided between slave and free. it did not intend slavery to end i hope this helps
