Americans always managed to find a compromise during their political history.?

Question

Many other nations couldn't. Why this is so?

Answer 1

Because it is easier to find a compromise between two large parties rather than among a zillion small ones, such as in India.

Answer 2

If Americans managed to find a compromise during their political history then the War for Southern Independence would not have occurred. A compromise would have been for the people of each territory to decide for themselves whether to have slavery or to join the Union as a free state. This is the compromise suggested by both Lewis Cass and Stephen Douglas. It would have avoid the War between the States.
