The subject of the great compromise was how the congress would deal with legislation. It was a debate whether the states should be equally represented, or should they be represented based on the size of the state, that is, on the size of the population. The decision was to have a compromise and have a bicameral government where both systems would be implemented in the best interest of all states with the senate having equal representation, and the house having population representation.
They decided that for now slavery would be legitimate and legal, but in the future the Congress would decide the future of slavery in the country. The 3/5ths compromise was important in this because of how slaves would account for during census when it comes to representation. In the future however we know what the congress did and how slavery was first forbidden in the North, and then later in the south as well.
Answer:
They did not want to have to help pay off other states' debts.
Explanation:
The Southern states oppose Hamilton's plan because "they did not want to have to help pay off other states' debts."
This is because before Alexander Hamilton makes the proposition, the majority of the southern states had actually paid off their wartime debts using their own money.
Thereby many of them believed other states of the United States should also pay their own debt, without assistance from other states.
Hence, in this case, the correct answer is "They did not want to have to help pay off other states' debts."
The British thought colonists had to pay more taxes/cost for the French and Indian War. Parliament also wanted more control, so they did a series of acts (Coercive Act) that all ended into the Intolerable Act.

Sharecropping gave white landowners the upper hand and economic dominance in Southern society.
Answer: Option D
<u>Explanation:</u>
Share cropping is a form of agriculture in which the owner of the land gives his land to the tenants where they can grow the crops and earn their livelihood. So this system of agriculture gave an upper hand to the land owners who belonged to the people of the white community and gave them an economic dominance also. It suppressed the lower sections of the society who were the tenants and who were dependent on the land owners for borrowing the land.
