Read the following excerpt from a speech made by President Obama on September 29, 2015, at the Leaders' Summit on Countering ISI

L and Violent Extremism:
We recognize that we have to confront the economic grievances that exist in some of the areas that ISIL seeks to exploit. Poverty does not cause terrorism. But as we’ve seen across the Middle East and North Africa, when people, especially young people, are impoverished and hopeless and feel humiliated by injustice and corruption, that can fuel resentments that terrorists exploit. Which is why sustainable development—creating opportunity and dignity, particularly for youth—is part of countering violent extremism.

We recognize we also have to address the political grievances that ISIL exploits. I’ve said this before—when human rights are denied and citizens have no opportunity to redress their grievances peacefully, it feeds terrorist propaganda that justifies violence. Likewise, when political opponents are treated like terrorists and thrown in jail, it can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. So the real path to lasting stability and progress is not less democracy; I believe it is more democracy in terms of free speech, and freedom of religion, rule of law, strong civil societies. All that has to play a part in countering violent extremism.

Based on the excerpt, answer the following question:

What differences between the thirteen states made compromise necessary?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

In 1776, the Founders of the United States met in Philadelphia to draft the Declaration of Independence that dissolved the political ties that united the American people with Britain. Thus was born a new, free and independent nation, the United States of America. Eleven years later, in 1787, after the victory of the American patriots on the battlefield, and having won our independence, many of the men who had met before in Philadelphia met again, together with others, to establish the structure of government of the new nation: the Constitution of the United States. In 1789, after the plan had been ratified, he had the new government. Together, the Declaration and the Constitution are the founding documents of the United States.    

With the amendments that have been made over the years, the Constitution is the supreme law of the country, the fundamental law of the nation. But the general language of the Constitution is illuminated by the principles established in the Declaration. Therefore, to better understand and evaluate the form of government we have, it is important to first see the Declaration where the Founders delineated their moral vision and the government it implied.
