Answer:

Northerners opposed counting slaves as part of the population if they had no rights, while southerners supported counting slaves. According to the compromise, five slaves would count as three free persons when calculating how many representatives each state received in the House of Representatives.

Explanation:

The Three-Fifths Compromise was a compromise established during the 1787 Philadelphia Convention between the colonies of the North and the South. This compromise considered, in the rules for counting people represented in the House of Representatives, that a slave was counted up to three fifths of a free man.  

The question was important, as the population count would then be used to determine the number of seats each state would have in the US House of Representatives. The Compromise gave a disproportionate representation of the slave states in the House of Representatives compared to the voters in the free states until the Civil War.

Lostsunrise [7]

The answers are:

- Recognition of universal human rights.

- Pressure from United Nations.

- Growth of nationalism.

- Promises made to colonies during the war.

- European economic weakness.

After the World War II many colonies were granted independence because of the European economic weakness. During the war European colonial countries were sucked dry economically to a point were they were all on the verge of collapsing as countries. After the war they were all in ruins and needed all the funds to rebuild themselves in every aspect. This caused the European colonial countries to grant independence to many of their colonies because they were not able to keep them under control anymore, be it financially or with the military.
