Answer: 'Spain failed to use the profit to become the dominant European economic power.'

Explanation: Despite Spain being able to fetch most wealth from the colonies back to the country, they failed at making use of the wealth to grow their domestic economy. Rather, Spain used this wealth to trade with other countries like India and China in exchange for spices, condiments, fabric, etc. Spain also spent huge sums on increasing its military might and waging wars in order to conquer new lands. Great Britain and France flourished as powerful European economies in the contemporary period.

kherson [118]

Federalists, who were strong supporters of the constitution deliberated that incorporation of Bill of rights would stand to be a barrier which would give a vague representation of the constitution. However after great deliberations they conceded to incorporate Bill of rights which were a series of amendments and this decision was to appease the anti-federalists who recommended the inclusion of Bill of rights. Federalists supported for the strong federal Government which has the power to raise an army, impose taxes and execute laws.

Anti-federalists fought for strong state governments as they were apprehended that the constitution may carry an element of despotism which was during the British rule and hence asked for representation of states.

Finally, the founding fathers concluded that each small state has a vote and they can form the senate and big states were given two votes and they were eligible to form the lower house. Thus the final outline of the Constitution was formed.
