The struggle to trade and control food
Answer: Great Compromise
Explanation: Their so-called Great Compromise (or Connecticut Compromise in honor of its architects, Connecticut delegates Roger Sherman and Oliver Ellsworth) provided a dual system of congressional representation. In the House of Representatives each state would be assigned a number of seats in proportion to its population.
<span>Once the Constitution of the United States was written in 1787 at the Philadelphia convention, the next step was ratification. This is the formal process, outlined in Article VII, which required that nine of the thirteen states had to agree to adopt the Constitution before it could go into effect</span>

As in any debate there were two sides, the <em>Federalists who supported ratification and the Anti-Federalists who did not</em>.
We now know that the Federalists prevailed, and the U.S. Constitution was ratified in 1788, and went into effect in 1789.
