Answer:
the Compromise of 1850 postponed the Civil War from happening for 11 years
Explanation:
The compromise of 1850 amended the fugitive slave act, ended the DC slave trade, added California as a free state, New Mexico as a slave state (even though there was like basically no slaves in New Mexico), and allowed Utah to vote on whether it was to be a free or slave state. This allowed representatives from both the South and the North to calm down about the free-slave state balance, since both sides were worried about being more slave states or free states in the Union.
