Answer:

The disagreement leading to the 3/5th compromise was whether or not slaves should count as a person for representation in the House. The North and South opposed each other, the South saying they should and the North saying they shouldn't. Both sides were scared of losing power in congress. The South argued that since slaves lived in the state they should count towards representation. The North argued that since slaves were not citizens and had no say in government they should not count towards representation. The compromise was that slaves would count as 3/5th of a person towards representation. This set a precedent in America that slaves were less than a person, this was one cause of the Civil War.

Answer:

Partition of India/Indian Partition

Explanation:

After the World War II ended, the European imperial powers were in ruins, economically badly damaged, and with depleted and exhausted military forces. This meant that they are no longer able to hold onto their colonies, so they had to grant them independence. India was one of those countries that was granted independence. And while that came as a big positive, there was also a negative in it, the country was divided on religious basis into two countries, the Hindu dominated India, and the Muslim dominated Pakistan. That resulted in lot of anger, tensions, and conflicts between the two groups and countries, with millions of people being displaced, injured, or murdered. It didn't stopped there though, as after the initial partition where there was suppose to be two countries, later it turned to be three, as Bangladesh managed to become a separate country too.
