Answer:

c

Explanation:

The Gold Rush brought an influx of people and a pressing need for civil government. Californians applied for statehood in 1849, and after a tense debate in Congress over the slavery issue, California was admitted to the Union as a free, nonslavery state by the Compromise of 1850.
