Answer:

The three-fifths compromise was a big component of the Connecticut Compromise. Since the compromise said that representation in the House of Representatives was to be based on population, the “value” of a slave had to be defined. In particular, smaller states did not think larger states with more slaves should be allowed to consider slaves as part of their population. A compromise was reached: a slave would count as three-fifths of a person when counting population for representation.

Good Morning!

Thus, any problem of frontier, territorial dispute or diplomatic discussion can lead (as it did in the last century) in armed conflicts. Countries were less likely to use diplomacy to solve conflict.
