How did Kansas become a battleground over the slavery questions in the western territories?

Kansas became a battleground over the slavery question due to the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which allowed the territories of Kansas and Nebraska to decide for themselves whether to allow slavery through popular sovereignty. This led to significant migration of both pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers into Kansas, resulting in violent clashes known as "Bleeding Kansas." The conflict highlighted the deep national divisions over slavery and foreshadowed the larger national crisis that would culminate in the Civil War.

The western states' stance on slavery varied significantly depending on the time period and specific state. In the early 19th century, territories like Missouri and Arkansas allowed slavery, while others, such as California and Oregon, adopted free-state policies.

Overall, the western states were not uniformly supportive of slavery; their positions were shaped by economic, political, and social factors.

What was Abraham Lincoln's evolution?

I'm not sure I understand the question, but if you are asking how he changed or evolved, one big issue on which he evolved was slavery. While there is little evidence he was ever a big supporter of slavery, he at first believed in a hands-off approach, where each state would decide for itself. But as time passed, he came to believe slavery was tearing the country apart and it needed to end. By the time he ran for president, he was no longer convinced that the states should be allowed to decide; he had evolved to the viewpoint that it was time for the federal government to take a stand in ending slavery throughout the country.
