What was the political significance of the great compromise and the three-fifths compromise?

History

Misha Larkins [42]3 years ago

Answer:

The two compromises established a delicate balance between the North and the South.

Explanation:

The Great Compromise of 1787, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, was a political agreement during the Constitutional Convention of 1787 that defined the structure of the legislature of the United States. Under the Compromise, the legislature would be divided in two chambers: the Senate, as the upper house, where every state would have equal representation, and the Congress, the lower house, where seats would be allocated to states proportionally, according to their population. The Three-Fifths Compromise, on the other hand, was the other great compromise agreed during the Constitutional Convention. According to this compromise, three out of every five slaves would be counted as part of the population of each slave state when allocating seats for the Congress.

<u>The political significance of these two compromises was that they established a delicate balance between the North and the South.</u> For the northern states, which were generally smaller than the southern ones, the Great Compromise meant that they would be considered as equals. For the southern states, the Three-Fifths Compromise meant that they were overrepresented. If slaves had not been counted, they'd have been a minority in Congress. However, this balance was very fragile, and the disagreements between the North and South erupted into the Civil War of 1861-65,

What did the Aztec demand from cities they conquered?
Nimfa-mama [501]

The correct answers are:

a. tribute, or payment;

c. conversion to their religion;

Once a city was conquered by the Aztecs they were immediately setting up their own rules and conditions in order that they keep the city in control, and also that they can benefit from it.

The Aztecs demanded tribute, promise that the people of the city will obey their ruler, and also that they accept and worship their gods. This can be seen from two aspects, one was advantageous in the sense that the Aztecs were able to keep in order the cities and have it their way, and the disadvantageous  in the sense that pretty much none of the cities actually liked them, in fact they despised them, which led to a lack of unity in their empire.
