Three out of five Black slaves would get a vote in Government. The Three-Fifths clause was the compromise position on the demand of large slave states, such as Virginia, that seats in Congress be apportioned according to the total population of the states.

I can't see the options, however, the Three-Fifths Compromise was a compromise during the 1787 Constitutional Convention in which three fifths of the slave population would be counted when regarding the population of a state in order to determine representation and taxation for the respective state.

This was deemed necessary as the Southern states had a much larger slave population and for all of their slave population to be counted was seen as unfair by the Northern states, which, naturally had a much smaller slave population.

WHAT EFFECT DID THE MOUNTAINS HAVE ON THE GREEKS? HOW DID IT IMPACT THE WAY THEY LIVED?

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

There was a limit on population

Explanation:

The agriculture was so low because of the type of soil there was and it made the Greeks travel to other colonies that possessed arable land. The mountains separated little communities from others so it made it hard to have just one government since the mountains made the rest of the population divided and isolated from each other. This is why there was two governments for the people divided by one side of the mountains and another for the other side of the mountain. Greece was not really unified when it came to governments because of mountains.
