The correct answer is B). They tried to have slaves counted in their population to gain more votes in Congress.

<em>The Southern states tried to gain more power during The Constitutional Convention when they tried to have slaves counted in their population to gain more votes in Congress. </em>

They were looking to get a leeway in representation. The solution they found was the Three-Fifths Compromise. The Three-Fifths Compromise was presented at the Constitutional Convention of Philadelphia in 1787.

A problematic discussion was about the apportionment, which is a term to name the method of allotting the seats to be occupied in the House of Representatives based in the number of people. The solution came from the Delegates Roger Sherman and James Wilson who suggested the Three-Fifths Compromise. This proposed the count of “every five slaves as three individuals in terms of the apportionment of representation and taxes.”

emmasim [6.3K]

militarism: Commiting to military

alliances: Friends of countries that help in wartime

imperialism: Desire to colonize, for glory, riches, or global domination

nationalism: Believing in your country's greatness

Japanese Imperialism led to colonizing parts of china, since it was mad at western powers colonizing china and pushing it out (hypocrisy). Italy was a rising economy, but bitter of not getting a fair share of land. German nationalism was at a high as the emerging Nazi (nationalist socialist) party was overturning the inflation ridding weimar republic. The failing alliance of the League of nations was falling apart quickly. Soon Japan, Italy, and germany turned to Imperialism, Fascism, Nationalism, and militarism and the world would find itself in another world war.
