Bartolome De Las Casas expected the Spaniards to convert the native population to Christianity through civil means. Instead, they forced conversion on these people and used violence if individuals resisted this change in religion. De Las Casas was appauled by the efforts of the Spanish and described the brutal treatment that Spanish conquerors used against Native American populations. He recorded his observations in his book <em>The Destruction of the Indies. </em>This would become one of the most famous books about Spanish colonization during the 16th century.

Rgest group of non-willing people brought to America were taken from

<em>Largest group of non-willing people brought to America were taken from Africa </em>and brought to <em>America</em> as slaves <em>by British </em>people who used to rule on America at that time.

The Atlantic slave trade or trans atlantic slave trade comprised of  the transportation by slave traders of enslaved African people,especially to America.The slave trade mainly used The Triangular Trade Route  and its middle passage,and continued from 16th to 19th centuries.

Many African rulers wanted to supply European traders with the extra enslaved people they wanted for liquor,tobacco,salt,potato,rice,wheat etc.As demand grew,some African traders began to capture other Africans and sell them to Europeans.

Usually British and French ships took 2 to 3 months to go from Africa to America.Ships transported on an average of  250 to 600 slaves on the ships.Many slaves used to die during the journey from hunger,disease etc.

What did the great Compromise and the three-fifths compromise involve so much debate and discussion at the constitutional conven
evablogger [386]

Answer:  Because each state was looking out for its personal interests in regard to representation in Congress.

Details:

The Great Compromise and the Three-Fifths Compromise both focused on  the representation of states in Congress.   Both of these compromises were devised during the United States Constitutional Convention in 1787.  

  • The Great Compromise resolved a dispute between small population states and large population states.  The large population states wanted representation in Congress to be based on a state's population size.  The smaller states feared this would lead to unchecked dominance by the big states; they wanted all states to receive the same amount of representation.  The Great Compromise created a bicameral (two-chamber) legislature.  Representation in the House of Representatives would be based on population.  In the Senate, all states would have the same amount of representation, by two Senators.
  • The Three-Fifths Compromise was a way of accounting (somewhat) for the population of slaves in states that permitted slavery.  For taxation and representation purposes, the question was whether slaves should count in the population figures.  (They were not considered voting citizens at that time.)   The Three-Fifths Compromise said that three out of every five slaves could be counted when determining a state's population size for determining how many seats that state would receive in the House of Representatives.
