Parallel 36°30' north
The
parallel 36°30' north
is a
circle of latitude
that is 36 and one-half
degrees
north of the
equator
of the Earth. This parallel of latitude is particularly significant in the
history of the United States
as the line of the
Missouri Compromise
, which was used to divide the prospective
slave and free states
west of the
Mississippi River
, with the exception of
Missouri
, which is mostly north of this parallel.
