After World War I, the United States had adopted a policy of isolationism, where they would not participate in global warfare or officially join the League of Nations. Roosevelt delivered the Four Freedoms speech 11 months before the United States declared war on Japan. The Four Freedoms speech was a break from the previous period of anti-interventionism, and described how the United States would be willing and able to assist its allies already at war.

Which issue was at the heart of one of the compromises made between northern and southern states during the Constitutional Conve
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Counting slaves in the population.

Explanation:

The weakness of the national government to not able tax, could not implement the laws it passed, and could not control trade lead to the revision of Article of Confederation. Such and other shortcomings, along with a rise in national opinion, led to the Constitutional Convention, which convened from May to September 1787. Representatives from southern states wanted slaves to be counted in terms of representation, however, northern states felt that slaves ought not to be counted towards representation because counting them would provide more representatives for the South. The negotiation between the two sides came to be known as the compromise of three-fifths because in terms of representation every five slaves would be counted as three individuals.
