True or False. Agrarian and slave states would not sign the Constitution unless the Slave & Trade Act & 3/5ths Compromis
grandymaker [24]

Answer: True

Explanation:

The Slave and Trade Act was an Act that Congress wanted to pass to stop the importation of enslaved people from outside the country as a first step to limiting slavery. The South wanted to delay this for more than a decade.

The 3/5ths Clause allowed for the counting of every 5 enslaved people as 3 people for the purposes of representation in the House of Representatives.

Southern states such as Georgia and North and South Carolina refused to sign the Constitution unless the above were added to protect their slaveholding policies.

Compassion, moderation, and humility are ideals that many Taoists

<em>The Goal of Confucianism  is to live a virtous life.</em>

Confucianism is actually not a religion but a philosophy and a way of life. The basic teachings of Confucianism are : 1. It emphasis on kindness towards others. 2. It preaches good manners, good morals and ethics. 3. It regards family and relatives very important.

Taoists essentially do not think that an afterlife exists the way that many other religions do.
