The Wilmot Proviso, one of the major events leading to the American Civil War, it would have banned slavery in any territory to be acquired from Mexico in the Mexican War or in the future, including the area later known as the Mexican Cession, but which some proponents construed to also include the disputed lands in south Texas and New Mexico east of the Rio Grande.

This was controversial between the Southern and Northern states, because this allowed the Union to always have more representatives in the House of Representatives and would make sure that the Union could control the Southern states and vote against anything will slavery.

Answer from: bri9263

The Wilmot Proviso was a more-or-less religious declaration that slavery wouldnot be permitted in any of the new territories that were likely to be admittedto the USA.
This would increase Northern dominance of Congress, and enable moreraising of taxes on imports - the big controversy in the South, which had nomanufacturing industry, and depended largely on imported goods.

president carter called the victims of kidnapping "victims of terrorism and anarchy" and added that the united states was not going to give in to blackmail. in the united states, they see hostage-taking as an outrage on the part of the islamist movement that violated the principle of international law on the immunity and inviolability of diplomats and their embassies.

carter refused to yield to the demands, khomeini used the situation to consolidate his power and nullify the challenges of the moderate wing of his government, headed by its president. the euphoria over the humiliation of the most powerful nation distracted the iranian people from the economic difficulties of their country. carter, in april 1980, broke diplomatic relations with iran and imposed a trade embargo, except medicine and food. iranian funds in the us they were frozen and accounted for to compensate the hostages when they were released and to pay the demands of us companies against iran.
