Answer:  He introduced the tumbleweed to Russia from Spain

Explanation:

Peter the Great embarked on a Grand Embassy between the years 1697 and 1698 in a bid to strengthen the Holy League as well as to acquire weapons and expert soldiers for his army.

He went to a number of countries including the Dutch Republic, Prussia and England. In both the Dutch Republic and England, he learnt shipbuilding as they were the foremost naval powers of the time.

Upon his return to Russia, he implemented western style in forcing his nobles to shave their beards. Eventually he started a beard tax where nobles and common people would have to pay money to keep a beard.

He did not introduced tumbleweed to Russia from Spain. Tumbleweed which is also known as Russian Thistle, is indigenous to Russia.

The compromise that was made to make the Constitution appeal to the southern state was? 1/2 Compromise? 3/5 Compromise? The Slav
guapka [62]

Answer:

3/5 Compromise.

Explanation:

A constitution refers to a set of written laws and principles which is typically used to determine the power and authority of the government, as well as guarantee the fundamental rights of its citizens.

The Three-fifths Compromise was a compromise reached among delegates who came from the southern and northern states during the United States Constitutional Convention which held in 1787.

These delegates had disputes on how slaves are to be counted during census to determine the total population of each state which, consequently would determine the amount of taxes to be paid, as well as the number of house of representative seats. They reached a compromise by agreeing that three-fifths (three out of five) of the slave population are going to be counted to determine direct taxation and representation in the house of representatives.

Hence, the compromise that was made to make the Constitution appeal to the southern state was the Three-Fifths Compromise.
