What issue was addressed by the three-fifths compromise?A) How the slave population would be counted.B) How to regulate trade wi

DaniilM [7]

Your answer would be A) How the slave population would be counted. During the time, there was a big debate on whether or not the slaves in the U.S should be counted towards the whole population of the United States when it comes to voting. People wanted a proper number, or representation, of the amount of people in the U.S that voted. The free men that lived in the U.S has every right to vote, but whenever a Slave votes, their votes would count as only 3/5 of a person. That's where the three-fifths compromise comes from, it decided that slaves could only be 3/5 of a person, meaning that their vote will count as 3/5, but not 1 whole. This means that the slaves who vote don't represent a whole person, and is only partially voting. This made the voting numbers very difficult and inaccurate because a person who's voting can't be only 3/5 of a person. In order for the votes to be more accurate, people believed that everyone, even slaves, should be one whole vote, not 3/5 of a vote.

How did the United States govern its new-found territories?

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: Annexation, war, expansion, shopping.

Explanation:

These are the essential elements of United States expansion. For this purpose, the United States annexed Texas. In 1803 the united states purchased from Lusiana from the French. In 1819, Spain thus surrendered the United States to Florida, and later, on the western borders of the continental United States, New Spain was replaced by independent Mexico. The famine for the new land was the cause of increasing conflict with Native American tribes, as well as the violent expulsion of Native Americans to areas west of the Mississippi River in 1830. Part of the American colonists also began to settle in the area under simple Mexican rule, including the city of present-day Texas.

In 1836, the settlers there started an insurgency against Mexico, and after a brief war, declared the independent Republic of Texas. In the case of Mexico, the accession of Texas to the United States led to the American-Mexican War (1846-1847). US forces defeated Mexico and forced it to hand over 42% of its territory, including California, to the Guadelupe Hidalgo Peace Treaty. On October 18, 1867, America bought Alaska from Russia and thus occupied this part of the country.
