The compromise between slave states and free states was resolved by the 3/5ths Compromise. The southern states wanted to have slaves count as part of the population. The free states did not. They eventually agreed that the 3 out of every 5 slaves would be counted. The Great Compromise was when the legislature was agreed to be made of 2 houses, one upper and one lower. The upper house would have equal representation and the lower would be have the states represented by population.
In 1863, four slave states remained in the Union. These were Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware. The 13th Amendment to the Constitution made slavery illegal in all the states in 1865.
