Missouri Compromise:

Please could you help me with these questions:

Was the Missouri Compromise the best possible solution, given the circumstances surrounding the issue?

Did the Missouri Compromise resolve any of the latent issues between states' rights vs. federal power? 

What was its role in developing a sense of American sectionalism?

Thanks
