Report Abuse. The Compromise of 1850 was a series of laws that attempted to resolve the territorial and slavery controversies arising from the Mexican-American War (1846â48).The five laws balanced the interests of the slave states of the South and the free states.ello, I was wondering if someone could list the main points of the Compromise of 1850, you don't have to go into detailed, even little bullet answers would be alright!
