What were two of the compromises during the constitutional convention

Two of the compromises in the Constitutional Convention were the Great Compromise (also called the Connecticut Compromise) and the 3/5 Compromise.

The Great Compromise settled the dispute between the states with large populations and the states with smaller populations.  The small states wanted representation in the government to be equal for everyone, so that they weren't overpowered by the big states.  The big states wanted representation in the government to be based on population, because they have more people, thus think that they are deserving of a bigger say in the government.  Connecticut delegate Roger Sherman proposed the Great Compromise, which gave the small states what they wanted by stating that representation in the Senate would be equal across all of the states, but also gave the large states what they wanted by stating that representation in the House of Representatives would be based upon state population.

The 3/5 compromise settled the dispute over slaves and their population count in the US.  The states that owned a lot of slaves wanted their slaves to count towards their total population, however, the states with less slaves did not want slaves to count towards population.  This was settled as the delegates decided that each slave should count for 3/5 of a regular citizen when counting for population.

Why was it difficult for the ottomans to capture Constantinople
Nutka1998 [239]
Constantinople was surrounded on all sides by a defensive wall and was well supplied, making it resistant to sieges. The Ottomans were only able to capture the city due to one of the city gates being left slightly ajar, allowing them to quickly bypass the wall and overrun the defenders.
