<span>Spread democracy--along with ideas of manifest destiny and "city upon a hill", the US believed they were the model for democracy. By becoming imperial powers they could train others to be democratic. Needed military and trade ports in the Pacific--with more trade occurring with China and Japan the US needed naval ports along the way to support US shipping. To also support the shipments, a strong navy was needed to protect the ships. Gain global power--European countries were proving to be a modern world power, a country needed to acquire colonies. US imperialism would allow the US to become a modern, industrial power. </span>

Explain what logrolling is through the disagreement between the northern states and the southern states. What does the South get
kap26 [50]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options either context or references, we can comment on the following.

Here you are probably talking about the Three-fifth Compromise, an agreement reached by the delegates that participated in the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to create the new Constitution of the United States.

Delegates from large and small states in the North and South reached an agreement during the works during the Convention. The proposal was made by delegate James Wilson.

Delegates agreed on the way slaves should be counted to determine the real population in the states. This was an important agreement because, in the end, this would the number of seats that each state would have in the lower chamber of Congress or the House of Representatives, and the number of taxes each state had to pay.

Finally, after many debates, the compromise was that they were going to count three-fifths of the state population of slaves toward the total population of the state. This allowed states from the South to have third more legislators in Congress and electoral because, in the beginning, slaves had been ignored.
